The video linked above is for the song entitled "Fistful of Swoon," a name that could just as easily describe the content of the band's sophomore album. "Divide and Conquer" is sweet and bitter to the last drop, not to mention thoughtful and creative. The mastermind behind the band's lyrics channels some of his favorite authors in his songs, displaying an active imagination and a penchant for mixed mediums. Can't say i'm not a fan for just the same sort of thing. For a more thorough look at the band, check out Paste's recent review. Paste listed this group as "Band of the Week" in late August, and i'm betting you'll be hearing more of them in coming months. Have a listen and let me know what you think. To forewarn, though, as the aforementioned song name suggests they're not for the faint of heart.
