- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
Settle will release their smart, attention-grabbing debut At Home We Are
Tourists on May 18th via Epitaph Records.
Produced by Adam Lasus (Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Army Navy, Yo La Tengo) and
mixed by Ken Andrews (Jimmy Eat World, Pete Yorn, BRMC), the Easton PA
quartetÆs first full-length album is a pop dreamscape that deftly combines
indie and dance rock that is alternately ironic and biting and deeply
emotional and deliberative.
Citing influences from Elvis Costello to the Liars and inspiration from art
to social networking sites, SettleÆs At Home We Are Tourists illustrates both
the outlandish collection of pop culture that moves the band and an unusual
ability to craft a remarkably accomplished first record.
Five years of writing, revising and discarding allowed the band to amass 12
songs that range from fuzzed-out rockers to indie gems to synth-driven fetes
that flow seamlessly one into the other to form a perfectly cohesive whole.
Standout tracks like the evocative ôOn the Prowl,ö the guitar-driven homage
to the bandÆs roots ôAffinity For My Hometown,ö ôISO: 40yr M W/Kids Seeks
26yr F WO/Kids,ö and the exuberant ôI Saw An Inferno Onceö create one of the
most interesting, unique and unforgettable debuts in recent memory.
