Album Description Winterpills bring you a tender, filigreed sound, a humming and a fragmentation of warmth and chill, a delicate suspension of belief. They are a band playing you songs of pretty losses and hollow hopefulness. They formed on a bare wood floor during a winter when mutual friends and potential enemies met to nurse wounds, drink, ignore the obvious, play other people's songs, and found they had their own. They now give them to you in all their friendly, angry, wimpy, moody fragility. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsTasteful Folk Pop with Substance and Melodies Shines M. JEFFREY MCMAHON | Torrance, CA USA | 02/07/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Folk pop can fall into certain traps: it can be cliched, too precious, or too derivative of other established bands, but the Winterpills are an original band with warm melodies who avoid these traps. Fans of Innocence Mission, Belle and Sebastian, and The Trash Can Sinatras will probably enjoy the Winterpills. If you like this type of melodic folk rock, may I suggest the Swedish band Ronderlin." Finally a Cure Cat Marigold | Oregon | 02/02/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Is there a pill for the winter? Yes. It's this album. Lush and jangly and warm, like the morning sun slipping in past the icycles on your roof. It envelopes you and warms you up. This album hugs you. I found the Winterpills through a band called School for the Dead and their singer Henning Ohlenbusch. Ohlenbusch and the Winterpills' Philip Price were collaborators in a band called The Gay Potatoes which also featured Chris Collingwood of Fountains of Wayne. Did you follow that? I'm not sure even I did. Price, like Ohlenbusch and Collingwood, has a talent for scribing beautiful, friendly, melodic, and moving pop hits. The Winterpills themselves, the band, arranges them into these delicate yet powerful expressions of emotion. You'll love it. If you enjoy the music of Elliot Smith, Sufjan Stevens, The Shins, The Sundays, Paul Simon, School for the Dead, Fountains of Wayne, and Suzanne Vega you will want this album for your very own." One for the Ages Vinzo | Boston, MA United States | 06/13/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I was introduced to Winterpills by a friend in New Jersey, who raved about this CD. He was right. This is truly magnificent music. There is something quite classic in the blending of the vocals that is magical. Just listen to "Pills for Sara" "Laughing" and "Found Weekend" and your soul will be stirred. While others are comparing them to newer bands, I hear sixties Mamas and Papas and Its a Beautiful Day in there. The songs are timeless and expansive. If this came out in the sixties, it would be considered a classic today. Yes, it is that good. Do not hesitate in picking this one up. A+++"
