from Michael Wojtasiak of Action Man Magazine: "Let's dispense with the formalities and get right to business. Miranda Sound are good enough to cure a hundred thousand indie rockers of their jadedness. Their second album, Engaged in Labor, is the complete package: unmatchable pop hooks, compelling lyrics, pristine production, glorious harmonies. You name it, Miranda Sound have got it. Since first hearing this band a couple weeks ago, I've been racking my brain for a fitting comparison. These guys are all over the map: the Police at their most chiming, Jawbox at their most forceful, Faith No More at their most (pardon the pun) epic, the Posies at their sweetest, Guided By Voices at their most clever. In fact, Miranda Sound are deserving of the highest compliment I can pay an indie-pop band: they are a whole hell of a lot like the Wrens, who just happen to be one of my top five bands of all time."
Sounded great last night, as always. And last week at Andyman's cool set! If you guys want to record that acoustic version of Midas i'll do it for free! And thanks again for the CD. The record is really great.
Thanks for the add, and for checking out my music! Be sure to stop by my CDBaby page to hear more of the album. You can also find the album on iTunes. I appreciate your ears -- thanks for listening! -- GM
Thanks again for playing "Virginia Creeper" last Friday. I know you were planning it anyway, but I'll just pretend you mentally picked up on my desire to see it played live. :)
You guys have always played like it's your last show on Earth....so, I'm expecting you to step it up a notch for these last few..like these will be Earth's last shows ever.
