Lowsunday

elesgiem is available in stores nationwide including Borders, Tower, Virgin and your favorite Indie shops...

From Brit-influenced dreampop to shoegaze-inspired melancholia, Pittsburgh PA's Lowsunday brings something new and refreshing to the darkwave scene. Their effortlessly smart and catchy songs tread the sonic waters with screeching guitars and layer upon layer of arsenic-laced melodies . . . crowned with bittersweet and emotive vocals. Compared to The Chameleons, Sound, Ride, Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine, "Shine" is from elesgiem, their second full-length release and debut for Projekt.

"Lowsunday's elesgium is glorious. Owing their most significant debt to Modern English, the songs on elesgium average about five minutes in length and make no concessions to post-Talk Talk (or post-Talk Talk Talk) production techniques. Their guitars conjure visions of ripples spreading from a pebble's point of impact at the center of a pond, while their vocalist wholeheartedly rejects the self-defeating irony that made the '90s such a crashing bore and reaches for portentously huge, grandly echoing notes as ride-cymbals crash over and over". - insiderone.net

"Simply put, Lowsunday are modern indie rock brilliance. They fuse melancholic 4AD type textures with catchy pop melodies that instantly hook you, and from then on there is no point in even trying to escape the smoky wonderland created by this band, and you won't want to. Their alluring melodies and arrangements are so inviting. They have great potential, and they have the chance to be THE band to usher forth a mainstream interest in gloomy pop." - Starvox.net
