"But don't get too attached to the living, even every single memory is fleeting." At two records in and with a number of national tours under their belt, I can hardly sit here and rhapsodize about how As Tall As Lions is some big secret that needs unleashing. I wouldn't hesitate to put forth, however, that a good number of you are still in the dark when it comes to Long Island's newest indie-rock success story. Passionate, slow crawling melodies escalate into near epic [...]

"I am folded, and unfolded, and unfolding..." We all love the Crows, but assuming you already own, love and listen everyday to everything they've ever put out, let's do something different. This compilation ( Dead and Dreaming: An Indie Tribute To The Counting Crows ) came out at least a couple of years ago, but I held off on picking it up because it was filled with bands my teenage brother bops around to – always a good reason to stay away, right? Anyways, I became [...]
Everytime I listen to As Tall As Lions I almost always wish I'm somewhere else. Usually not at work, or driving. I just want to listen at home or out somewhere with good company. It's a kind of rock-jazz-ambient like music... well at least to me. The four guys from New York came out with their second album earlier this year and it's a masterpiece. I really don't know how to describe the sound - except the amazing vocals and lyrics. I listened to this album a good portion of the way on a road trip from San [...]

Tokyo Police Club Mais uma boa banda do Canadá. Tokyo Police Club é de Toronto e, além de ter um nome legal, o grupo tem um bom arsenal de boas canções indie rock, que o mundo descobriu com o lançamento do E.P. "A Lesson In Crime" . Utilizando boas linhas de baixo acompanhada da rápida bateria, riffs de guitarra cheios de efeitos e alguns teclados ali e aqui, a banda já é uma promessa. Em turnê pelos EUA com o Art Brut/The Spinto Band e "A Lesson In [...]
Long Island, NYAs Tall As Lions is highly recommended if you like bands like Coldplay. They are touring extensively right now in support of their new album that just came out last month."Mariah"As Tall As Lions on MySpace
As a preview of the show tomorrow night at Little Brothers , I thought I would give you all a little taste of this satisfyingly lush New Jersey band. I had never heard of them before, but I stumbled across free tickets, so who am I to argue. Let me just say, I think that it would probably be best if I were to stop looking at what other people think a band sounds like. It seems to me that about 90% of the time they get it wrong. This is especially true if they [...]
This is not the kind of week that has the big shows that make you say wow. With that said, this is a solid week that has a wide variety of understated shows worth checking out. If you want spectacles, go to Austin or wait for Virgin Festival to hit town next week. On Tuesday evening, local buzz band Page France hit The Ottobar with In Ink Please . Wow, that sounds weird saying local [...]
1. Lakes - Indian Lover - the band formerly known as Watashi Wa and Eager Seas returns on The Militia Group and I'm happy about it. It sounds triumphant. [ buy ] 2. As Tall As Lions - Love Love Love (Love, Love) - redundant? perhaps. boring? definitely not. How tall are lions anyway? Chorus is really catchy. [ buy ] 3. The Dresden Dolls - Dirty Business [...]
Sometimes, kicking back and enjoying the moment enables you to see things with more clarity. Such was the case with As Tall As Lions self titled sophomore album. Initially dismissed as too lite and entirely too familiar , the album rattled around my house until I decided to pull it out for a second spin. Maybe it was the humid breeze outside, maybe it was the cabernet. Or maybe it was the fact that I finally pulled my head out of the sand. Whatever the reason, something finally clicked and [...]
I feel guilty receiving emails from new bands and then just ignoring them. One function of this blog is to help promote new indie music. The internet is the new medium for these hard working emerging bands to get exposure. I will admit that I don't necessarily like everything I hear but you may like what you hear. The whole point is to get the music out there for people to experience good or bad. So, here is the latest explosion of artists from my email inbox. I am really interested in what you [...]
When the new As Tall As Lions ended up in my mailbox, I was quick to shrug it off. Another ambient, emo band? Pass. After listening to the record I realized that this was the worst labeling since the photocopied cover on the Hi-C tape I bought back in the day. Doing it froggy style isn’t cool when the bootleg quality makes it sounds like Hi-C is rapping into a tin can. Let’s start with this:
i have to admit something. i am not what you would call an As Tall As Lions "fan" - i know all too well the intensity with which their true fans adore them. to me, their first album was a cringe-worthy thing, vocals tapping too easily into that emo whine, music too structured and... well.. whiny. i have also had several chances to see them live now - and managed (though not by choice) to miss them all. i'm telling you, i'm not fated to like this band. so then [...]
Here's a band that was brought to my attention through a mass email for people like myself. I get so many that it's hard to keep up, but since I have nothing better to do at the moment, I'm going to pass it along in case you haven't had the pleasure yet. The band is As Tall As Lions , and the sound lives up to the name. No, unfortunately, they're not local, and no, unfortunately, Atlanta is not on their tour stop, but hey, at least you can check it out, right? You might [...]

Whenever my wife wears the As Tall As Lions t-shirt she totally stole from me, I wonder when I'll get to hear new music from the Massapequa indie rockers. Listening to the boys' lush new album (and you should, now,...
