morning, fine people. check out the gospel according to bruce.
as a guy that used to write press releases for a living for 8/9 years i always assumed that my releases were going unread and always wondered why i even put so much effort into em. it was really because my clients felt that their respective “news” was so fuckin awesome that they deemed wordy/over the top press release necessary. now that i am on the other side of the table, i know that press releases are pretty much pointless cause i dont read em. as stated many times before i look for keywords, which brings me to brooklyn’s miracles of modern science. keywords that caught mine eye, “orchestral” “space pop” and “mandolin.” seeing as i dig orchestrated space pop featuring the mandolin, i was anxious to check em out. i navigated to their myspace page, and wouldnt you know it. they dress up in fuckin costumes! fuckin a! i am not a fan of costumes, i must add. but, i was bound determined not to let the flash gordon inspired garb to deviate me from my initial goal. as it turns out my fears were unwarranted cause they make a very cool racket, but can ya blame me for being a little skeptical? they definitely rock the stringed instruments but i find them to be more orchestral pop than spacey orchestral pop. thats really neither here nor there, but if you happen to be a fan of andrew bird, final fantasy or maybe even broken social scene then these young lads should be to your liking.
they are working on a new ep which should be out sooner than later.
