Shadow Shadow Shade

"Originally formed as an art project amongst friends and originally known as The Afternoons, Shadow Shadow Shade steadily grew into the seven-piece behemoth that it is today. Synthesizing anthemic rock 'n roll with the drama of a Wagnerian opera, scruffy Americana, and hints of psychedelia, the group was able to distill its large palette of influences into a truly unique and highly magnetic concoction. In other words they somehow manage to cram the entire history of Elephant Six into their songs and come up with something that's sweeping, orchestral, huge, and really quite good. I guess that's to be expected with more members in the group than the Fall has had in the last twenty years." - Pop Stereo
