Pop Matters heaps praise on Hosannas!


Pop Matters weighs in on Then & Now & Then... click to read the full review.
"Like Brian Wilson, these guys love harmony and revel in both the simple joy of a sound, and the power that comes from intricate layering. With Hosannas, though, there’s something far more dissonant to what they are doing. Even as the melodies are warm and inviting, the sounds around them cool and spread out, adding a lonesome air to even the biggest, most bracing tracks."

Loch Lomond's West Coast tour kicks off tonight in Portland at Mississippi Studios! You can download and share their new single, "Ghost Of An Earthworm", now.I was lucky enough to catch their intimate warm-up set last night and the band just blew me away. There are very few bands that can match their intricate arrangements and intensity in a live setting. If you're on the West Coast, this is a must see...

What the press is saying:
"Loch Lomond boast a well-plotted dynamism and a knack for intriguing storytelling. Intimately folksy but compellingly orchestral, Night Bats seems expertly calibrated to induce sighs." Spin Magazine

"Loch Lomond deserve all the accolades they are getting." Brooklyn Vegan

"That something "special" that every band needs: Loch Lomond has it in spades." Tinymixtapes

"The glassy "Night Bats" lingers in the memory with aching vocal harmonies and the slippery combination of acoustic guitar, banjo and xylophone, while the final track, "Wax and Wire," is a withering waltz that is equal parts bellow and whisper." The Oregonian

"The opening Ghost of an Earthworm (incidentally, Best Enigmatic Metaphor of 2010 thus far) stomps in tenderly, while Wax and Wire wanes out splendidly – taking our affections with it." the Skinny
