this band called aqueduct

I don't think they use too much guitar. But everyone in Seattle is hot for them, and they got a good review in Time Out. Also this blog likes them. (note: I don't know the guy who does that blog, but he usually links to some good stuff.)

You may see me soon sporting a tshirt for this band, which was nicely supplied by a nice fellow from Barsuk (label of the Long Winters, and that band that I am long tired of).

Tonight they play Conan OBrien, which is a bit strange considering I was under the impression they were on the West Coast. I wonder whether they had to pay to fly out or not. Or maybe this is some tape recorded miracle. Hmmm...

Here is their website.
You can listen to some songs here and here and here. And doesn't that last ep's artwork somewhat resemble the Decemberists album art? Carson Ellis with a shaky hand?
