SECOND STORY MAN
ARTIST / BAND: SECOND STORY MAN
SONG (MP3): CATALYST
ALBUM: Red Glows Brighter
FILE UNDER: Indie / Rock / Pop
LABEL: Landmark Recordings
INFO: "If you're going to take four years between records, you better make damn sure it's worth the wait, and "Red Glows Brighter" is." -Velocity Weekly
"This record maintains the bands signature pop harmonies and quirky time changes, but it shows an incredible amount of artistic development as well. They incorporate all sorts of new influences into their bag of tricks. The album includes some familiar Second Story Man sounds (Catalyst), harder rock (Mitey Might), psychedelic surf-rock (Letter to Be), ethereal Flaming Lips-esque space pop (When Your Dreams Expire) and southwest groove a la The Cure (Cancer Dance). The highlight of the album is its hidden track, a haunting, echo-filled acoustic number that prominently showcases the bands trademark vocal harmonies." -LEO Weekly
"[Red Glows Brighter is] a rich, phenomenally engaging effort that is as imaginative and full of surprises as anything you'll hear this year from the big-shot indie record labels." -Cincinnati City Beat Weekly
