im usually more open minded to different sounds from indie bands but this is just horrible.. although oddly i seem to be the one of very few to think so.
@lukyl100 It never fails to amaze me how that happens. This song is amazing to me, but a lot of stuff that I know has to be good either irritates me or leaves me indifferent (for instance, Radiohead eludes me). I always hope I'll somehow crack the taste one day. I've had occasional success at it.
@waxyway I agree. NYC art tends to present life with a harsh, secular strobe; where this gives it to us with votive backlighting suggestive of something older than America.
@anomalogue It's funny that you say that. I did't know this band, I came across them because of an interview of Jake Shears, Scissor Sisters, he was in my country and they asked him what are you listen now? and he said School of Seven Bells. He said I don't know where they are from, I think is from Canada. And I thought wow, a new yorker that finds that sound is from abroad.
@anomalogue plus the lyrical content and reverberating vocals-- as if to be broadcast to the whole world-- reaches farther than cultural hearth from which the song was spawned
aaah this isn't on itunes :/ anybody know if i can get a hard copy of it anywhere? i'd much rather have the CD but stuff like this is so hard to find...
when i first moved to nyc for college, i worked with alley and claudia at ALPHABETS (which is closed now). they're really amazing girls, i became especially close with alley.
they're both so talented, i remember when they were just putting on!air!libray! together. so awesome to see what it became.
i met them and ben (from the secret machines) after one of their shows in school of seven bells. talked to ben for 5 minutes probably, and ally was so gorgeous and seemed pretty shy
Wonderful song.. it's a pity they only got one proper album out before splitting up. The band School of Seven Bells that the two sisters are in now looks promising though.
I just CANNOT STOP watching this video. How cleverly made - and superbly edited. And I hate to admit it, but I am madly in love with both the sisters... sorry for sharing too much there....
I don't like their thick texture...it makes them sound as if they have a poor sense of rhythm. And their harmonies weren't even that interesting...

At least they got this song out there before they broke up. The lyrics relate to the musical structure, if ya think about it.

drums have got to be the hardest thing to sync in editing. the visual hardly ever matches the actual song.
