04:55 PM on 02/03/12 | Why isn't there an option to download the guerilla album? I want it.
Edit: Are You That Somebody is one of my all time favorite songs and I was worried when I saw that band The Red Ribbon Army covered. I was surprised that it was actually pretty good. |
'Good Times and Beer' is now up to download, and for free today, so check it out

Thanks. It didn't have the Free Download link earlier. | | |

05:56 PM on 02/03/12 | I listened to everything, and nothing on here is bad! I recommend Shambles, EiBE, Red Ribbon Army, Cause to Confess, & the Hands on the Stereo compilation |
Glad you enjoyed Cause to Confess. We appreciate it. | | |

09:48 PM on 02/03/12 | Love Dan Mariska. Awesome dude. All his projects rule...especially when he helped me with my project | | |
|
09:50 PM on 02/03/12 | I'm gonna go ahead and recommend Mansion Closets. I haven't heard this new album but I've heard previous stuff and it's great.
EDIT: Ok, it's the same one that I've already heard. It's good. Check it out. | | |

12:11 AM on 02/04/12 | Tell me you know what I mean... I wish I liked the Red Ribbon Army a lot more just because of their band name. High-five to anyone else that gets it besides me. | | |

That Dr Gero's one bad mofo.
The band's not bad though, was expecting a lot more from them though with a name like that. | | |

12:53 PM on 05/04/12 |  Praise for Orpheum Bell
Orpheum Bell have become our favourite ‘Country & Eastern’ artists! They deftly and elegantly mix classic Americana with gypsy rhythms plucked from travelling carnivals and vaudeville sideshows to create something that is in equal parts melancholic, seductive and sometimes a little bit dangerous." —Mad Mackerel

"It’s a carny sound they create, the sound of a travelling medicine show rolling into town, but a long way from the sometimes sinister undercurrents of that music, for theirs is warm, welcoming and consistently engaging."
The Old Sister's Home is "A great album, one that’s both enjoyable and interesting." —Americana UK

On Daddy's Crying: "This intimate, waltzy vignette is another example of their elegant and organic sound. It is the perfect soundtrack to a hot bath, a bottle of red wine and a broken heart. Dive in and indulge yourself."
—Mad MackerelFull article
"This folksy gypsy group sounds like nothing else you’ve heard before; it’s a wildly eclectic mix of insanely diverse musical styles and genres that blends beautifully together to create an idiosyncratic aural entity entirely unto itself. A superbly unique pip." —Jersey Beat
Full article
"The Old Sister’s Home is Orpheum Bell’s most ambitious CD to date (it’s third!) with an eclectic style mixing folk, country, Eastern, and even a hard-driving song sung in Russian."—Insomnia Radio
"Orpheum Bell’s country and eastern sound has a timeless and boundless quality."—The Rapidian
"Poor Laetitia" conjures up images of smoky backroom tangos and darkened theaters. Lead vocalist, Aaron Klein's delivery of this character study of an awkward girl with a beautiful name is at once sneering and seductive.
—Beehive Candy
Orpheum Bell isn’t your typical band, especially topically. Their gypsy influences and, in this album’s particular case, the unusual influence of the settings, happenings, and aesthetics of hospitals played a role in many of the lyrics and song subjects (hence the album’s title).—Northern Express
What matters is the music and on new album The Old Sisters’ Home, their particular blend is a heady, intoxicating brew with vocals hewn from the Tom Waits stable and backed by tunes that sound as if they belong in smoky back-rooms and dusty, darkened theatres. —Mad Mackerel
