About This Release
Their most recent record, the Ugly Organ racked up considerable accolades: named one of 2003's best records by Blender, called "the best album of (the band's) career" by the NY Times, and given a 4-star rating by Rolling Stone. Happy Hollow is an expansion of their trademark discordant swell, marked by a new bounce, a buoyant strut, and a recognition that hey, this is fun. The themes addressed here include shattered American dreams, small town malaise, and religious hypocrisy.
More Details
Still fiercely loyal to the Creek, which survived all that "Omaha is the next Seattle" malarkey with relative dignity, the now four-piece continues to fine-tune their cello-spiked emo bluster.
