zillionaire (US): General Info

Member Since	7/6/2005
Band Website	newgranada.com/bands/zillionaire/zill.htm
Band Members	Heath Dupras (vocals, guitar, cowbell) Michael Waksman (guitar, vocals, melodica) Keith Ulrey (drums, vocals, shoes) Bryan Bates (bass, sunny disposition)
Influences	"Our Band Could Be Your Life" - Michael Azerrad
Sounds Like	..."the band is a sprawling culmination of college rock slowcore that's melodic, dissonant and ominous. ...TSLHBTD is the distillation of the flurry of sounds and styles bouncing through dorms during the '90s indie rock boom. I may have been in fourth grade in 1994, but Zillionaire is so precisely dated that I feel like I was there and spinning records at the local college station." - CMJ "...a mixture of intensity and engaging tunes makes The Street Lights Have Been Turned Down a simmering gem." - Orlando Sentinel "...their debut album, features smart, polished tunes with a unique difference. Instead of rock or pop, these guys present complex tunes that incorporate elements of progressive rock with odd hints of jazz. The lead track ("I Won't Let You Down [This Time]") is immediately peculiar and captivating." - Babysue
Record Label	New Granada Records
Type of Label	Indie

elawgrrl	Feb 18 2008 4:49 PM Happy Monday - I posted new zillionaire photos on my blog:)
No	Feb 15 2008 7:42 PM Thanks for the lovely valentines evening.
Ashley	Feb 15 2008 6:36 AM tonight was fun. Thanks or making my Valentines Day!!! I just read your review on Pitchfork!! Congrats on the 6.8 HOWEVER(!!!) I still felt like you got robbed. That's some bullshit. FUCK PITCHFORK!!! THEY CAN KISS MY ASS!!!! FUCKING PRETENTIOUS, "I'M SO COOL I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY FAUX-HAWK HAVING GIRL PANTS ASS TONIGHT BECAUSE I'M SO IMPORTANT I CAN BE ANYWHERE AND GET LAID" pieces of shit ass!!!!!! I HATE them!! They should just kill themselves and get it over with. Although your review was good the rating was still bullshit. You are WAY better than Vampire Weekend. However The Joshua Tree only got like an 8.9 or something. Pitchfork should really just kill themselves. Regardless, LOVE ASHLEY (and Adam). SEE YOU TOMORROW GUYS!!!
Latola	Feb 14 2008 9:00 PM Thoroughly enjoyed the show in Gainesville last night gentlemen; it made my week. Been listening to the album ever since.
