"A follow-up to Bright Blue Dream and a departure, Sunset's The Glowing City is equal parts seamless song cycle and singles collection. Skip around, spend some time with a suite of tracks, or take it in all at once. Songs about reflection, exhaustion of life and circumstance, join with pop sensibilities in a beautifully comic-tragic fashion."

"Bright Blue Dream is the first widely available LP from Bill Baird's new project, {{{Sunset}}}, following the break up of Sound Team. The record is a follow-up to his previous CD-R and cassette albums, {{{Sunset}}}, Silence! and Pink Clouds, which were released independently through 2006 and 2007. All of the distinctive song styles from {{{Sunset}}}'s previous releases are represented here, yet are more finely-tuned and expansive, brought together by a vividly colorful and meditative feel. Bill's craftsmanship and darkly humorous songwriting take an impressive leap forward with Bright Blue Dream."

"The Weird Weeds are a trio from Austin, TX that draws upon wildly divergent musical backgrounds and a common interest in non-traditional forms to create pop music that is experimental yet oddly palatable and well-conceived. Since 2003, they have released two full-length albums and one EP and have extensively toured the U.S. and Canada. Their members have collaborated with a huge array of musicians including Jandek, Tom Carter, Arnold Dreyblatt, The Cherry Blossoms, Xiu Xiu, and many more. For their third album (and first for Austin's Autobus Records) I Miss This, the band spent seven months recording at home and in the studio, a far more labor-intensive process than any previous record they've made. The album further develops their already highly refined approach, expanding their dynamic range and musical scope beyond 2005's acclaimed Weird Feelings. The songs go from the most raucous distorted guitar romps to the most delicate acoustic ballads, still continually indulging their penchant for complex harmonies, unconventional song structures, and strange noises. I Miss This is another meticulously crafted and beautifully executed album from a unique and talented band."
