Synopsis

Product Description
This follows 2006's "Appreciation Night" (praised by the likes of Rolling Stone, The NY Times, Alternative Press, URB, and The Chicago Tribune). "The Family Afloat" expresses a crucial personal transition and a collective one. The band quit their day jobs to tour relentlessly, then made the communal decision to return to the more stable life of work weeks and strong roots. But there's no settling down in these songs: family life is raw and confusing; as uncomfortable and unexpected and rewarding as it is crucial.

CD Reviews

Great Album
D. Nemes | Chicago, IL | 09/10/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I picked up a copy of this album at their record release show in Chicago. A very solid record that holds it own with some of the best releases this year. It reminds me of a Modest Mouse record both in sound and the fact that there really is not a weak song on it. Winston is an awesome song and my favorite song on the album; very different than most of their previous recordings. This record could push them more into the mainstream and garner them a real national following."
