   About this Piano plays itself
"This self-titled debut album from Atlanta’s own This Piano Plays Itself is a remarkable statement from a young band. The gorgeous soundscapes and sensational songwriting produce a near perfect album. This first outing from TPPI is completely self recorded and produced, and the few tiny flaws that can be found on this record come from that side of the equation, but has any artist ever gotten everything right on their first try? What is for sure is this talented 4-piece has enormous potential so expect big things from these guys in the years to come." -OhmPark.com



"I have to admit that i was rather impressed. These young lads play space-rock that is somewhere between Datura Dream Deferred and Parts & Labor. That’s a weird mix if you think about it, since DDD were a deep space band that bordered on the ambient, and Parts & Labor are more of a crazy math rock dance band. But This Piano Plays Itself worked a delicate balance between those two sounds. The guitars were light and echoing, while the keyboard elements were eclectic and all over the place." -evilsponge.org


Belle découverte que le groupe This Piano Plays Itself, un tout jeune quatuor d'Atlanta qui se produisait le 7 janvier dans un lieu interlope, le Drunken Unicorn, sorte de boite de nuit délabrée organisant des soirées et des concerts... Après avoir subi les assauts soniques des deux premiers groupes programmés, dont les éprouvants débutants Sound On Film (marqués par Arcade Fire, mais la route est longue avant d'écrire des morceaux aussi réussis que ceux de leurs ainés canadiens... ), la différence de niveau est flagrante dès les premières notes du concert de This Piano Plays Itself. Chez ce groupe prometteur (mais encore perfectible), la personnalité musicale est affirmée, les influences sont bien digérées et les morceaux captent immédiatement l'attention... Sorte de rencontre impromptue entre My Bloody Valentine, Morrissey, The Smiths, Mogwai et Explosions In The Sky, ce quatuor emmené par un chanteur guitariste doué pourrait faire parler de lui assez rapidement ; il faudrait pour cela que les promesses scéniques affichées ce soir là se concrétisent sur d'autres dates aux USA (que le combo sudiste a déjà commencer à explorer instruments en mains) et, pourquoi pas, en Europe... Le petit détail qui permet de prédire un bel avenir à This Piano Plays Itself, c'est qu'outre la présence d'un leader aux idées foisonnantes, le batteur impressionne par sa puissance et sa science du jeu et les guitaristes/bassistes sont capables de projeter les morceaux dans l'espace avec leur sons stratosphériques. Un groupe à suivre donc -http://www.foutraque.com

thanks for the add, guys. quick question--we used your song "In" in a video. This one:



If you want us to take it down or change it just say the word. If it makes any difference, there's no commercial interest here.

look forward to hearing more from you guys!
