I wish I could remember where/why/how we first heard this band, all I remember is that it happened when we lived in our first place in LA. We heard this first track (maybe on Morning Becomes Eclectic or something??) and loved it, and I had to get the cd. The rest, as they say, is history.
Keeping in line with the rest of these posts, this band is also dead :(.
Any band with the balls for an album cover like that right? I mean, like Shannon McArdle's voice - but she's not exactly a looker and that is not a flattering picture.
Here are some other sample off their other albums. I'm not sure how best to describe their sound...maybe bi-polar folk-rock?
National Skyline has Jeff Dimpsey, Hum's old drummer. I may not get their other discs, this one is just too mellow and uninteresting for me.
Centaur is Matt Talbot's (vocals & guitar from Hum) side project, although they only
had one album. This album surprised me, and is pretty good for background music at least. It's nowhere near as good as Hum, but it's better than Glifted & National Skyline. To my tastes.
Slow Dazzle is a side project of Timothy Bracy & Shannon McArdle (the then married, now divorced, couple from Mendoza Line). It's overly mellow for my tastes.
