There’s an album brewing in Orlando; in between booked studio time, they squeeze in their sounds, slowly shaping and forming these tracks into what will become Saskatchewan’s debut full-length album. Fronting is our is our first glance at the evolving bands sound. There is a groove making it’s way in, and will be much more evident going forward. But you can still count on Saskatchewan’s shoegazy soul to guide the music.

Kiss Kiss Fantastic - Stars Over Rodinia
If you haven’t listened to Dark Matter yet, then I’m sorry, you’ve missed the boat. But, luckily it’s taken me a few weeks to really get this album into my system, so here it is now, for any of you stragglers.
It’s hard to believe that it was nearly two years ago, the last time we were given a piece of work by this internet-connected duo. Dark Matter came to us just as gently and subtley as the track above, Stars Over Rodinia, begins. It’s indistinguishable cluster of synths growing louder as we are drawn closer - and just then, that celestial voice begins it’s unearthly whisper.
Both the Red/Blue Shift EP and Dark Matter have space themed cover artwork, and it seems that there is this astronomical element in their music too. Somehow combining the dissonance of space, with the gratification of pop. It’s an odd, but very intriguing mission. And what a perfect pair to pull this off, than two people, never having met, living thousands of miles away, creating music with nothing but space in between them.

The Morning Benders just released the album version of their song “Excuses.” It’s free for download on their site. It’s truly a dreamy love song that will take you back to the doo-wop air of The Penguins. The mere fact that it lives up to it’s epic live recording is a testament to what a great song it is.
Again the album is out March 9th on Rough Trade Records.
