Anyone heard these guys before?
The guitars are kind of American Footbally in places, but more upbeat. The vocals kind of remind me of Stephen Malkmus too. Pretty sunny!

yeah great band, i listen to the LP alot
the EP is more kinsella-esque
Awesome,
I'll have to pick that up if I can get hold of it. I can see me listening to them loads when the weather gets better!
try this as well:
http://www.myspace.com/algernoncadwallader
more cap'n jazz than american football
debut album Some Kind of Cadwallader is out soon, and it's fucking stunning.
YES
love this band, they've been at the top of my last.fm for the past few months, ZO GOOD!
Do you know if anyone is putting the album out over here?
i wouldnt imagine so
but some UK distros will be ordering in copies no doubt, or you could shell out an extra few pennies on p&p and order it from the USA, the exchange rates are making american orders pretty great at the moment.
both
great bands, im looking forward to getting the a/g record. I think I also read about there being a new colossal record at some point, with a slightly different line-up?
Really?
They've not updated their site in a while by the looks of things, but I'd be excited to hear a new album!
well
one of their blogs 'an update, sort of' says they will do another album, but its dated 2006?!
Fingers crossed I suppose!
Great band!
Their best song is on an Asian Man comp. It's called something like Table Settings.
Man, I love that song.
ps,
I'm pretty sure my friend still has copies of their LP in his distro:

Ta!
I'll send him a message, hopefully he'll have one left.
yeah steve had quite a few left
when i bought one off him.
Youth
is a classic
