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."

This saddens me greatly. You should have looked me up. I'm positive I could have gotten you fellows in touch with the folks at Cedars. And I'm even more positive that after a show at Cedars you'd have lots more Youngstown support. Thats where your Y-Town crowd hides out at every weekend!!! Miranda Sound Reunion Show????? Take care guys
