"Modern Day Atlas' "Let It Settle"CD Review"

From Origivation's June '06 issue:

5 stars (1-5, with 5 being the best)

"Can progpop exist? Ask Modern Day Atlas. Actually, don't ask them - they're busy making badass progpop."

"...unfailingly more fun and dancey than self-indulgent."

"Even their instrumental stuff is enjoyable - not just listenable, but downright enjoyable."

Bio

Modern Day Atlas is designed to perform anything the members of the band want to do at any given moment. Generally, this has meant twisted, oddly timed prog-rock workouts; blatant pop with yearning, soul-searching lyrics; quirky rock songs with dreamy imagery.
This band was formed back in 2003 because the members were dissatisfied by the limitations of other musical situations they'd been involved with. It's a very demanding performing situation; Modern Day Atlas songs require a lot of discipline and devotion to craft.
Modern Day Atlas began recording their debut album "Let It Settle" late in 2004. The first live performance for the band occurred in the summer of '05. "Let It Settle" was released in April '06, and the band has been performing regularly around the Delaware Valley to promote the album and our unique take on rock.
