Dodging and Burning Made up of two previously self-released EPs, now available for free on Rope Swing Cities.
A solo operation-turned-team effort, Roger, Roll is a pop/indie/shoegaze/folk/space rock/whatever band from Denver that somehow resembles the explosion of a star. And loves you a lot.
Available now on Rope Swing Cities
RSC writes, "It’s rare that when handed a demo of a friends local rock band that you are as blown away as we were by the songs represented here. Roger, Roll crafts rock music without a hint of pretension, something not seen a lot in today’s flooded indie rock market, which makes them even more impressive. Emotionally honest, well crafted songs define the sound found on Dodging and Burning. The music of Roger, Roll flows from soft, melancholy ballads, to hope filled, rock rollercoasters. All of this is tinted with just the right amount of tongue-in-cheek humor, making the album wonderfully balanced and a joy to listen to again and again."
Dodging and Burning is a compilation of two EPs/demos we self-released physically in 2007. We hope you enjoy it. Really, we're just happy and relieved to have something official and out there (rather than just some CD-Rs we hand you on the street). Thanks again to Joshua and RSC.
Tom Murphy of Westword writes, "Much of Roger, Roll's material conjures the sun streaming through the clouds after a mid-spring rainstorm and that ineffable sense of renewal. But there is also, in every song, the quiet intensity of ocean waves with emotional depths to match, resulting in solid pieces of heart-stirringly shimmering pop."
