about

In anticipation of the long (long...long) overdue new album coming in 2010, the mighty Three Mile Pilot have recorded two new songs for this limited edition single. Right away you're reminded of The Black Heart Procession/Pinback connection with "Planets," an unusually upbeat and infectious slice of weird pop perfection. B-side "Grey Clouds" is a darker, sprawling gem recalling the band's earlier days, when they were one of the most risky and experimental bands on Geffen Records. Strictly limited to 2,000 copies - and nowhere near enough to satiate those of us who have waited with baited breath for a dozen years in eager anticipation of a new album - "Planets / Grey Clouds" only builds on that hopeful anticipation. Any new Three Mile Pilot would have been something worth celebrating, but the fact that these songs are so undeniably great makes the thought of waiting a mere six months feel like another twelve years. It's actually a wonderful feeling.

Some Offcell Voices
by Pinback

supported by 5 fans who also own “Planets / Grey Clouds”

One of the first CDs I ever bought back when I was around 15, and now the first release I'll own on both formats, for good reason! As microtonal music becomes more popular every year on Bandcamp, Offcell especially feels ever more prescient in its cheerful experimentalism, while Some Voices remains stately and gorgeous in comparison. Two essentials. RE--ANIMATED
