Release Notes:
Pershing, the sophomore release from Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin, is
the next logical step in SSLYBYÆs young career. Since the bandÆs critically
acclaimed debut, Broom, they have shared the stage with the likes of Mute Math,
of Montreal, Sound Team, Catfish Haven and Chin Up Chin Up, to name a few. They
toured libraries with cult band Harry and the Potters. They headlined a European
tour and even made their way to their namesakeÆs homeland of Russia!
Now, they are raising the bar even higher with Pershing. It has all of the
attributes that made Broom so endearing; however, while Broom posed SSLYBY as a
promising young act on the rise about to find its way, Pershing seems to act as
its mission statement. On Pershing, SSLYBY works out its adventure streak by way
of quirky chord changes amid massive hooks and addictive melodies. The new model
is not only an improvement on the original, but seemingly posits itself as the
shape of things to come. The future definitely looks bright for our boys in
SSLYBY. Tracks "Think I Wanna Die," "Glue Girls," "Modern Mystery," "Boring
Fountain," and "Dead Right" are sure to be favorites.
