Dropzines
is the latest smash Indie Pop trio to come out of Pennsylvania.
Dropzines Music
can be described as an eclectic mix of savory Harmony-Indie Pop
served up in bite-sized morsels. Although appealingly confectionary
to the ear on first taste, there lies just beneath the pleasing
candy veneer, a dark center composed of witticism and melancholia;
and strewn throughout are the razor shards of sarcastic cynicism.
All of which, promises to be audibly accessible and intellectually
stimulating.
Singer/Songwriter/Guitarist,
Shawn Stabley, brings
to Dropzines his checkered past of musical experiences on tap. Formerly
of the now defunct New York City faction, The
Most Sordid Pies, Shawn recorded the album, Grit
& Sunshine along side producers John
Siket (Sonic Youth,
Phish, Yo La Tengo) and Kramer
(Shimmy Disc Records),
utilizing legendary rock recording facilities, Bearsville
Studios and Power
Station.
Accompanied
by the distinct yet unorthodox bass guitar style of
Michael Brenneman
and the beautifully paired vocal harmonies and percussion of
Jason
Kline,
Dropzines bring you their debut album, Between
Sheets and Walls. With a flair for brilliant
60Ős harmonies laid atop ballads of angst, loss, solitude, and indifference,
Between Sheets and Walls
guarantees much more beneath the musical surface and
from a fresh perspective.
