    "Enjoy Picture Books because they do indie rock how we want it done. There is nothing tired or pansy about it, just damn fine stuff to make your feet dance. Thats where rock went..."

    "This EP from Picture Books is a very intriguing beast...Every song is unique and enchanting. My only complaint is that it’s too short. I really look forward to hearing more from this act."

    Heralded by the Ghost Mistress, Erik Harms, 36 feet of high carbon steel, two worn pistols in his claws, weaves melodic mixed, but planned, re-alphabetized constructs over the pounding footfalls of the ancients resonating from Nicholas Kelley.

    It has been said that the Internet is like a series of tubes, so shall it be said the Nicholas Kelley is like a series of Internets; pulsing, breathing, undulating with refined precision.

    Yet another Nicholas is present, a Nicholas Papaleo: a caustic amalgam of reptilian DNA, fudge, and talent. While it remains true that more people have called out the name of Nicholas Papaleo in bed than any other, whether in rage or in lust, more still have called his name triumphant in conjunction with Omnichord tones.

    Wickedly we are brought about to grand viceroy Joshua Miller, a boy-prince dance of majestic gestures and integrally succulent skill. Crystalline blue sonic blasts and elongated tingling delights exude from his hands causing your heart to stop just long enough for it to remember why it loved so long ago.

    When you were younger you had a favorite uncle that would tell you the funniest jokes. It would be years until you grew up and understood enough to realize that those jokes were not jokes at all, but the gruesome tales of a shell shocked, battle scarred veteran. More so he wasn’t even your uncle; he was Kelly Johnson, a towering brick-walled rhythmic contortionist.

    Picture Books is forged from the sweet subconscious whispers of the unborn sleepers yearning to be freed and feast on the juice which flows between the ears of humanity. Forget about conventions, friends, let’s make some mistakes.
    -Brayton Cameron-
