Alexander's Dark Band - Music To Stand By The Fireplace To (Independently released CD, Progressive pop)
If the name of the album isn't enough to grab your attention (Music To Stand By The Fireplace To...? Yee-haw...!)...then the cover photo of the band dressed like squares all happily gathered around the fireplace will almost surely make you laugh out loud. Alexander's Dark Band is a confusing entity that is bound to be a confusing and obscure oddity in the months and years ahead. Instead of going for one style or sound...these folks create songs that just don't really fit any particular genre. In some ways the songs sound extremely preprogrammed...but in other ways some elements seem purposely loose and accidental. The band consists of Annalise Ohse, Brian Beadle, Callie Sparrow, Jake Buchert, Jeff Luna, and Sara Peanut Lawson. We couldn't even begin to rate this one...so we'll leave it up to you to determine exactly what it is you think these folks are up to...? Mr. Rogers meets The Flaming Lips perhaps...? Whatever it is...it is most certainly creative (!)... (Not Rated)
