Album Notes

With their first full length, My Dad vs Yours force down post-rock barricades to a state where pop melodies take precedence over orchestral crescendos; where electronic beats, slide guitar and shoegaze co-exist in vibrant harmony; where instrumentals can incite sing-alongs. Recorded over the marrow-chilling months of 2005-06, After Winter Must Come Spring is tulips pushing through a late thaw. It is the sound of intense expectation that focuses not on escape but upon communal re-alignment. Though not a movement, it draws upon the social energies behind one: sometimes sullen, often celebratory, always self-aware and questioning boundaries.

After Winter Must Come Spring was recorded and mixed by Howard Bilerman & Efrim Menuck at Montreal's Hotel2Tango (Wolf Parade, Arcade Fire, Godspeed You! Black Emperor).

REVIEWS

Great instrumental atmosphere
author: Paul Robertson
AWMCS is a great CD for chilling out, tripping out, or as background music for a small gathering. While not completely able to relate the experience of the band's live show, it does a very good job of getting across the overall My Dad Vs Yours feel - mostly mellow, fairly psychedelic, but not overindulgent or scattered. An atmospheric sound that occasionally echoes early Pink Floyd and Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet, AWMCS creates a cool vibe that is relaxing, yet still interesting enough to keep your attention. The musicians are talented, the songwriting strong, and the production crisp. Hopefully there will be more to come from this band!
