The Long Winters - Pushover - mp3 review
Ok, I’m actually home sick today so I don’t have access to my full mp3 library. This is kinda lame I know, but I decided to send a ‘Long Winters’ track becuase I was hangin ith some kids from Barsuk and ADA with Andy last night and they forced us to watch an acoustic set the band was doing at Other Music. I’m not a huge fan at all, but I have to say the show was pretty good. It was just the singer, but the guitarist from Nada Surf came up and did a few songs with him as well. These guys are getting mad push from Barsuk and ADA for some reason, I personally don’t think they deserve it. What do you guys think?BTW, sorry I sent another track I’m not too crazy about. I promise when I get back to work I’ll start sending the good stuff. But, if anyone has anything they want to send thats cool too.

Sorry I’m a little behind on checking these out. Africa and all. I really like this song after a few listens, and even kinda liked it on first listen. For whatever that’s worth. Why don’t you like them Mark?

I don’t necessarily not like them, just didn’t think this record was worth the hype Barsuk and ADA are putting behind it. I don’t know, I def. liked the songs better when he did them solo acoustic. Something about the production on this track though just makes it sounds a bit generic and cheesy. The last record they did (i think its called when I pretend to fall) though had a song called shapes on it which I thought was really good and overall i thought that was a much better record.
