Yeah, that guy must be living under a rock if he hasn't listened to all of Dust before. Looking forward to more reviews tomorrow I hope!

Who wouldn't be interested ? Thanks I loved these reviews. Accept this one " http://sputnikmusic.com/r...lear-So-and-Sos-Buzzard/ " . That guy said he didn't listen to the whole dust of retreat album. He is a fool. Hipster ? I think Not. Amazing is more like it.

One more.
A video of Richard performing "I Don't Wanna Eat My Vegetables":

http://www3.timeoutny.com...r-so-and-sos-plays-i-don’t-wanna-eat-my-vegetables-video/

Monday afternoon, Richard Edwards of Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s dropped by the office to play some tunes for us. Here’s “I Don’t Wanna Eat My Vegetables,” a tune that didn’t make it on the band’s new Buzzard. The now Chicago-based band hits the stage at Lincoln Hall on Sunday 19.

Looks like Margot is taping a Daytrotter session sometime this week:

(from the Daytrotter weekly email):

As busy as we were last week, we're neck-and-neck with the pace this week, taping like madmen here in Rock Island, as well as at Big Orange in Austin. By the time the dust has settled, we'll have captured sessions with Hot Hot Heat, The Black Angels, Brittain Ashford, Abigail Washburn, an encore with Margot & The Nuclear So & Sos, Voxhaul Broadcast, All Tiny Creatures, Tallest Trees, an encore with Fake Problems, Crooks, Busdriver, Sunddress, No Joy and we're working on trying to get Dungen back for a second go and a first with the legendary Skatalites.

Had to laugh at this little blurb about Margot, especially the bit about comparing them to "Sufjan Stevens with balls".

From: http://www.philadelphiawe.../On-The-Record09810.html

Margot And the Nuclear So and So’s

Buzzard

(Mariel Recordings)

Sounds Like: Indianapolis- based octet is a gentle balance of whispy and garage rock, gentle and vicious on their third LP of hinted-at absurdist songs.

Free Association: Inspired by The Royal Tenenbaums’ Margot. Got it, makes loads of sense.

For Fans Of: Broken Social Scene, Arcade Fire, Sufjan Stevens with balls.

Hey GZ. Glad you're back! There have been a few big changes, but they are not broken up per se... there is still a band that is touring and recording (thank goodness!). The line-up as we knew it is no longer the same. The only "original" members that remain in Margot are Richard, Erik and Tyler. Chris, Andy, Emily, Hubert and Casey have all moved on to other things (all of them are in other bands now - see the "Side Projects" forum if you want to know more).

Margot is still making music, and very well I might add. The new album, "Buzzard" is coming out in August, last I heard. The Margot v2.0 line-up has some great musicians playing with them, and they each bring a slightly different sound to the table. The new members include Cameron McGill, Brian Deck, Ronnie Kwasman and Gary Vermillion. For me, I think the hardest thing to get used to regarding the new sound is not hearing Emily's voice (or even just a female voice) when that's been part of their sound for...

Local heroics
Posted by David Lindquist
Indie rock, metal, meat-and-potatoes rock and progressive R&B. All of these styles are found on my list of Indianas best recordings of 2005:

1. Margot & the Nuclear So & Sos, The Dust of Retreat.
The Dust of Retreat is a sonic dreamscape that exists under a canopy of strings, horns, cocktails and other stimulants. Singer-songwriter Richard Edwards balances the trip by matching bleak story lines to cheery and hummable melodies --...
