Synopsis

Album Description

Pela is an American rock and roll band. At a time when the word "America" has never been more fraught with meaning, songs that speak to our basic feelings and emotions about life could never be more resonant. "Pela are as original as they come, and the artful songwriting and emphatic vocals are a welcome addition to this world of bland mediocrity" - Anthem Magazine.

CD Reviews

Hands down best album of 2007

R. Liddell | Seattle, WA USA | 08/30/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I bought the album before they played the benefit BBQ for KEXP. I actually think there are 4 or 5 better songs than "Lost to the Lonesome", the song getting the most play on that station, but they really blew me away with their live set. They stood out among a bunch of great bands at that show. TV On The Radio had the best album of 2006, in my opinion, and this is the best of 2007. "Waiting on the Stairs", "Song Writes Itself", "Tenement Teeth" and "Lost to the Lonesome" are great rock songs, and "The Trouble with River Cities" and "Your Desert's Not a Desert At All" are gorgeous. Pick up this album and see them live if you get the chance."

Must Have Album of 2007

N. Paschall | Escondido, CA | 06/02/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Hands down, probably one of the best albums that will come out this year. I am quite picky about the albums I like, and this one has sneaked its way in there. Fans of Arcade Fire, Killers, Band of Horses, Clap Your Hands, etc. will be served well to buy this album.

Enjoy"

Smart compelling groove rock

Otto Zappatore | New York, NY USA | 10/03/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a gorgeous album. Smart without being pretentious, varied but still organic, sing along fun but not dumb. Fans of Arcade Fire, Spoon, Okkervil River, Twilight Sad, Beirut... rejoice. And buy this album. "Waiting on the Stairs" will have you stomping your feet and asking for more. "Anytown Graffiti" will impel a beautiful reverie. And the rest of the album's darn good too."
