summit to enjoy the whole year thru

The Annuals are yet another group of individuals being name dropped right, left and centre across the cyber world and it's not hard to see why. The lazy reference of Arcade Fire, while not being totally inappropriate, is perhaps a little off the mark. While the same energy and screaming vocals are observed in the latest offerings from the band (and yes I realise this is stretching at similarities), they definitely hold their own with use of electro oddities, louder loud bits and much quieter quiet bits.



Not to take anything anyway from the aforementioned Canadians, but this ensemble is somehow much sweeter, more hearts on sleeves with giant arrows pointing at their giant love muscles. But with noise. You'll see.

While their official page still has far to go with photos and such like, you are able to promptly find three tracks from their new album Be He Me available for streaming with another two up on MySpace. It would seem the band are busy touring round the states at the moment but fingers crossed for european dates.
