Our debut album "The Old Road" has been reviewed by the folks over at Sputnik Music and they've really given it a fantastic write-up. What makes it all the sweeter is that this has been the first review out there for the new record and it's been responsible for creating some buzz over it.
What [The Old Road] is, is a defining record of human frailty and longing. While it is incredibly popular to write music that reflects the dire straits of ones soul, Mesa Verde do so in a manner that is unflinchingly real and incredibly relatable. Everyone, regardless of age or whether you listen to Metallica or The Buzzcocks, can find a moment to cling to on this record, a snippet to scream your heart out to. For that, I can only give it my highest regards and accolades, while imploring everyone with any sort of interest to seek it out. The Old Road is arguably the best underground release of the year, and every ounce of respect it can get it deserves. Tying this review together, this is ultimately an incredible oral simulation of the phrase “a heart filled reaction to dissatisfaction”.
I'm not sure what's better, our album being described as one of the best underground releases of the year or the City of Caterpillar reference!
Read the full review here. Big thanks to John for taking the time to review our record.
Hi guys, don't know if you read these comments, but I've been wanting to order your new record, but I can't seem to connect to the Art For Blind website. Is there any other way of ordering it?
Hi Wyko,
Thanks for the interest in the record. I think Dany, who runs Art for Blind, had his online store hacked so he had to take it down.
You can contact him directly at artforblind <AT> gmail.com
