2004, Slowdance
If music pedigree means anything, THE '89 CUBS are a band gifted from their humble birth. Hailing with much pride from Omaha, NE, the trio of THE '89 CUBS feature members of such respected indie acts as THE GOOD LIFE, BRIGHT EYES and DESAPARECIDOS. With a jittery and upbeat indie-rock style that leans heavy on the introspective lyrics, jangling guitars and a loose-knit interplay that could only come from both lifelong musicians and longtime friends. There Are Giants in the Earth was recorded by the band over a period of a couple months in various locations (Nebraska, North Carolina, etc) and the final material was mixed AJ Mogis (THE GET UP KIDS) and mastered by Doug Van Sloun (THE FAINT). With a level of excitement that draws comparisons to the early days of SUPERCHUNK, guitar heroics along the lines of MY BLOODY VALENTINE and the passion of any number of their Omaha peers, THE '89 CUBS have created a stunning album of confidence and pose in There Are Giants in the Earth.
