The Tonics - "Distance." You'd be hard pressed to guess what decade this song comes from if not for the sometimes Morrissey-like vocals. The Tonics play a pleasant brand of pop unencumbered by any indie posturing or MySpace marketing appeal. A young group expressing the emotions of their generation in a forthright and sometimes unhinging way, this group has a bright future if the pressures of post-college life don't take them down first. Their song "Sad" is another favorite of mine. You can purchase their EP here, but if you don't feel like dropping the dough they've got it available for download free of charge. The Tonics' publicist even has a blog about the band.That's right, there's even press for me, Neon Phosphor. We thank the author of No Frontin' for the publicity.
In other news today, Steven remixed "Apart" from scratch, and replaced the bassoon organ with a celesta.
"Are you employing the wall-of-sound technique to your recordings?"----No, I wouldn't exactly call it employment. It's more like an unpaid internship.
