Iowa's own version of the Travelling Wilbury's.

Mirror America - the song "Positive Boys" couldn't get this song out of my head with a shotgun. Are they ever releasing a record?

Got Joe Lally's solo record in the mailbox today, man is it fucking good. It's called 'there to here'
One song would technically be a new Fugazi song, and it's fucking boss. Real boss.
The newest Mission of Burma is damn good, as I'm sure everyone knows. The Nomeansno is real good.
The 'Rockin' bones: 50's punk and rockabilly' box set my wife has been blasting in the house is pretty fucking awesome as well.
All have excited me.

Paradox surrounds Nozomi Phoenix. Sophisticated yet raw, unconventional while still accessible, alternately atmospheric and hard-hitting: the band is adept at lending congruity where there should be none, and in this rectification of duality sits their inner essence. The band's style of moody evolutionary rock has garnered comparisons to artists such as Jeff Buckley, Sonic Youth, and Pink Floyd, to name several. The band itself is influenced by visual and aural artists such as: Akira Kurosawa, Sebastiao Salgado, Amon Tobin, Slayer, Charles Mingus, Anton Corbijn, U2, Richard Avedon, Mamoru Oshii, Fugazi, Massive Attack, Neil Young, Quasimoto, Diane Arbus, and Tracy Silva-Barbosa. The mission of Nozomi Phoenix is not to evoke images of imitation, or ideas of surface things, or of egomania and closed doors, but to heal, to awaken, and to enable.

Our debut EP is available to anyone in the US for an affordable $8,


Another band I can hate without ever listening to them.

That's extraordinary. Someone sat down and wrote that.
Amazing.

All bands with public 'mission statements' or 'manifestos' are invariably shit.
