Release Notes:
Oldsolar's 2001 debut album, 'Many Visitors Have Been Gored By
Buffalo', received widespread critical acclaim, being
described as "frequently beautiful" by the NME, "a stunner of
an album" by The Sunday Times and "a thing of real beauty" by
The Big Issue. Comparisons ranged from pre-bombast U2 and The
Blue Nile through to Mogwai, Boards of Canada and
Spiritualized. The band started as a two piece from Glasgow
and now have a fluctuating personnel of anywhere between 3 to
7 members, with a string section and a trumpet player being
among the newest additions. They had a new EP, 'The Perfect
Backswing', released earlier this year, which also got rave
reviews, and the band are also in the process of finishing off
their second album. Live, they supported The Reindeer Section
in Glasgow at the end of last year and were described as
"Bloody awesome" in The List's review of the show.
