She Sir

Yens 7"

She Sir
Yens reconciles the perceived disparity between the pop sensibilities, professionalism and vocal arrangements of the 1960's with the roots of shoegaze and stylistic denseness, making for a genuinely exciting and original experience. With immediacy and accessibility, Yens ensnares the listener and proves itself modernly relevant: worthy of considerable extended attention. (r.i.y.l. Mojave 3, Low, Beach Boys, Asobi Seksu...)
 
LIMITED to 300 copies! 4 new tracks from the Texas folks, melding dreampop/shoegaze sonics with pop sensibilities. Lotsa lovely guest slots on these tracks as well.
 
She Sir alumni include past and present members of JOHN VANDERSLICE, MENOMENA, LOXSLY, BRAZOS, WHAT MADE MILWAUKEE FAMOUS, RINGO DEATHSTARR, MY EDUCATION, PEEL and LOW LINE CALLER. She Sir experiment with and generally obsess over the aesthetics of songwriting. Unique phrasing, intricate arrangement, smart sensibilities, and cagey rhythms are just a few of the elements that contribute to the unique She Sir sound. By combining carefully constructed songcraft and unhurried vocals --along with their education and background in Classical and Modern music composition practices-- the band achieves a wall of sound that unmistakably presents a modern skew all their own. This band proves that modern indie music yet contains undiscovered territory.
 
In 2006, She Sir released an academically dense piece of nineties-influenced shoegaze writing called, "Who Can't Say Yes." The record charted well within the CMJ top 100 and brought with it lots of positive reviews and recognition. The band has since stayed hard at work on their follow-up and has continued to steadily gain interest from bloggers and listeners, both locally and internationally.
