They draw on grooves not heard since the days of classic Motown, while at the same time exploring the intricacies of arrangements favored by such bands as Beck, Flaming Lips, and Radiohead.

"The bands songwriting craft and daring use of dynamics creates songs that are simultaneously unpredictable and accessible. We hear Death Cab as well as Jeff Buckley in this blend, which mixes influences flawlessly while creating something a major label could get excited about."

Since forming in Detroit late 2003 (known then as the band Blend), The {edit} Concern have been playing shows of every manner while solving their own musical puzzles. The result was the December 2005 release of their album, Deadlines, a fresh new addition to a Detroit music scene that continues to explode. Describing what The {edit} Concern sounds like is a daunting task. If you can imagine Wilco taking a dance class with Jamiroquai, or Beck playing Yahtzee with Ben Folds while Thom Yorke slowly strums a guitar in the corner of the room, singing to no one in particular, youre in the vicinity of The {edit} Concern. The songs rage and whisper at the same time. They pick fights without apologizing. The lyrics are sincere, yet occasionally sarcastic.
The constant tug and pull within the music that The {edit} Concern writes is exactly what they want you to notice. The members of this band are writing about their lives, and everyones lives around them. And like life, the music is both unpredictable, and predictable. Its happy, and its sad. Its difficult, and its easy. Its a picture mirror of things exactly as they are.
