Film School, Cloud Room, National & Big Sleep - Shows & Tours
"We've been searching long and hard for the American Radiohead for years. People have recently proclaimed My Morning Jacket to be the closest fit. It's more likely that our Interpols and Sufjan Stevenses are the creative forces that will endure and mature during the next decade. But Film School sound like a band attempting to fit into that niche of literate rock music. They succeed pretty well, and they find their strength in softer songs...." [Popmatters]
FILM SCHOOL
Pitchfork-article-subject The Cloud Room are out on tour. San Francisco's Film School (listen @ Myspace and on this ecard thing) are going on a short tour in March. On March 11th, the two bands will meet for one show at Mercury Lounge in NYC. They'll be joined by one of my new favorite bands, The Big Sleep. (tix)
