   About Secondary Modern
SECONDARY MODERN: Three "brothers" consistently make music in close quarters--a strange, tight-knit triangle that sounds both old and new. "Everyone plays everything" is how we respond to some questions. "sixties pop" -- "post-punk" -- "shit...I don't know" are things we overhear. A good friend recently referred to our sound as "madman rock." What does that mean? We wish that words were irrelevent. Spoon-fed on The Beatles, we hit our stride when we learned how to sound unlike them. So, what exactly are we then? ************************************************************************************* THIN CITIES: The new record that took way, way too long to make. Musically succinct--lyrically rambling. We finally sound like we always thought we did. ************************************************************************************* Discography: *THIN CITIES (June, 2008) *VANILLA TO AN ENGLISHMAN (2007) *A FINANCE OPERA (2005) *SECONDARY MODERN ep (2005) - out of print *************************************************************************************** For booking send a message or email secondarymodern@hotmail.com
