The Isles have crafted a strong, slow-burning grower for their debut...winning because of their strong melodies and excellent playing. When they're firing on all cylinders as on the delightfully jaunty "Terraforming", they distance themselves leaps and bounds beyond their peers. Perfumed Lands is a subtle charmer that sounds better with each new listen

PostPrior is the duo of Midwest Product main man Ben Mullins & vocalist/wunder-drummer Michael Kuzmanovski (the descendent of circus acrobats- no lie). Blending 80s melancholy with razor-sharp programming & composition skills, the duo craft a totally unique kind of pop with the same finesse & attention to detail that multi-instrumentalist Mullins displayed with his former band. Equal parts catchy, quirky, & epic, & with subject matter ranging from actor Elliott Gould to George Willig, who scaled the World Trade Center with a set of homemade claws in the late 70s, the PostPrior sound is expansive & ambitious without ever betraying those with an ear for detail & a need to dance.
