Funnily enough MMB got sent an album from a New York record label for a Californian band, neither being all that close to Brisbane, let alone Australia, but hey it's nice to feel noticed even if it does just involve being added to a mailing list.
The Spires are a three-piece dream pop band from Ventura, California and consist of Jason Bays (vocals/ guitar), Colleen Coffey (drums) and Catelyn Kindred (bass). Having formed in 2004 they have since gone on to release three LP's and half a dozen EP's up until their latest scheduled release of 'Curved Space' on July 13. Their previous work has earned them comparisons with the likes of The Velvet Underground, Belle & Sebastien, Robyn Hitchcock and even Brisbane's own, The Go-Betweens.
'Curved Space' appears to be a continuation from their previous work, a sound full of reverb, dreamy pop and melancholic lyrics. A video for the first single from the EP, 'Orange Yellow' is below and if you like what you hear that much the EP is reportedly due for release on July 13.
