Product Description
Album Description
Drummer Raphael Mura, guitarist Marion Andrau (who both take lead vocal duties) and bassist/backing vocalist JB Ganivet return in the latter half of 2008 with `Sticks and Stones', a new album that smoothes over the jagged edges of their debut, imbuing upon them a strong melodic drive, without losing a trace of the band's trademark integrity.
Recorded in Seattle at the dawn of 2008 with renowned producer John Goodmanson at its helm (Death Cab For Cutie, Blood Brothers, and Sleater Kinney), it sees Underground Railroad gain maturity without sacrificing their angular, noisy leanings; a Velvet Underground / Jesus and Mary Chain psychedelic swirl is discernible in the hypnotic `Stuff in Your Pocket', while the simple, overdrive-led buzz of Pixies or Sebadoh is palpable in the heady fury of tracks like `Kill Me Now (Or You Never Will)'. The record also features Seattle's prodigal cello player Phil A. Peterson, whose arrangements on `Poems For Freaks' or `Six Pieds Sous Terre' lend these songs an unabashed, epic edge.
