Nana Grizol

"Less Of A Band Than An Exuberant Orbit Of Bright Weird Planets Circling The Joyful Kinesis Of Main-Songster Theo Hilton Nana Grizol's Debut Album "Love It Love It" Sees Release On Orange Twin On May 13 2008. Recorded In Their Hometown Of Athens Georgia Directly After A Month-Long Tour Of DIY Spaces Across The States This Record Finds The Band Brimming With Energy And Rightly Well-Honed Where Live Performance Is Concerned "Love It Love It" Sacrifices None Of The Band's Beloved Sweat-Stained Essence.
The Crew Augments Theo's Book-Open Vocals And Beautiful Fingerpicking With A Suitably Eclectic Array Of Instrumentation. Laura Carter And Robbie Cucchiaro Both Formerly Of Athens' Legendary And Notoriously Horn-Buoyed Neutral Milk Hotel Head Up A Brass-And-Winds Section Comprised Of Laura's Celebratory Trumpet Robbie's Baritone Euphonium A Couple Clarinets Harmonica Recorder And Whatever Else You Can Pack Into A Touring-Trunk And Bring Along For A Blast. Rhythmic Backbone Comes Courtesy Of Southern Punkrock Siren Madeline Adams' Bass Matte Cathcart's Drumming And Some Right-On Fender Rhodes Piano Provided By Hot New Mexicans' Mainman Patrick Jennings. The Catchy Heartfelt Crunch Of The Album's Opener "Circles Round The Moon " Segues Seamlessly Into The Brassy Beautiful Circus-Lullaby "Tambourine-N-Thyme." Things Get Sad And Stripped Down With "Tiny Rainbows" -- A Gentle Plaint Nudged Toward The Light By The Brilliant Horns. And "Broken Cityscapes" Gets Positively Naked Theo's Adamant Vocal Sounds Above His Acoustic Guitar And A Couple Rattles. Theo's Lyrical Voice Is Ruralist Lovelorn And Punkrock In The Most Primal Way He Looks To Explicate A World Gone Way Wrong On The Most Basic Inhumane Levels. Experiences Gained On The Touring Road And At His Home At The Orange Twin Conservation Community Have Led Him To Question The Empty Life Of The Modern American And The Disquieting Ways The Inherent Dystopia Have Made Itself Manifest On Our Own Interior Landscapes." -Orange Twin read less
