- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
SeattleÆs Webelos have just released their first album, Shadow Seasons. ItÆs
a quirky little critter that took a few plays to make an impact, but since
that awkward first meetin Shadow Seasons and I have become quite comfortable
with one another. Webelos sound like they could have been on Teenbeat back in
the 90's when Unrest and Eggs were around. The record is half
instrumentals, that the band really let loose on, creating little groovy
numbers that are perfect for a little two-step in the kitchen. They
incorporate a vaguely TeenBeat/Factory groove with their tightly wound
rhythms while at the same time maintaining an element of nerdiness to their
songs that at times reminds me of the Monochrome Set. This record is total
fun in a music geek kind of way (they have a song called Yo La Mango), but
even if youÆre not one of those, the WebelosÆ Shadow Seasons has way about it
that could thaw the coldest of hearts and at the very least will put a bounce
in your step as you walk over the frozen tundra. Scouts honor!
