A quick look at The Pitchfork Guide to Upcoming Releases: Winter 2009 tells us that on January 13th, the following album will be available from the 1st runner-up Best local band to dance to and Best dressed local artist according to the The Coast’s Best of Music Reader’s Poll:
The actual CD Release party is scheduled for January 16th at The Marquee Club and features Woodhands and Tomcat Combat.
Wintersleep’s latest album, Welcome to the Night Sky, has been released in the States and received a great review in Pitchfork.
They even give the drummer some:
It is drummer and founding member Loel Campbell, however, who provides Wintersleep’s magic touch. While the group’s songwriting certainly pulls off a trick or two, the end result would have significantly less impact under the treatment of a weaker rhythm section. The passion behind Campbell’s attentive, driving beats gives the songs a grittier edge, the lyrics more feeling, and pushes along the rest of the band with a momentum that connects the listener to the song faster than one might anticipate at the outset.
