I really like this.  How are their other tunes?  Thx RP!
Nice tune.  It grabs my ear, and is yet one more example as to why I like listening to Radio Paradise.  I don't think there's any other site that has quite the same caliber of excellence which seems damn near (can I say damn here?) routine with Bill and his.  Bravo guys!  Bravo! {#Clap}

Time to see what's on SOMA this morning.
Really loved "soon we will be airborne", liked this one.
Thx, Bill!

nice set this last hour !

 
Agreed!  This track has a nice beat and groove to it...and a lot of the tracks last hour have been either new to me or at least not well known.

Long Live RP!


nice set this last hour !

This is Norman, the bass player. When are you gonna let me sing some songs man!

C'mon....I can sing man!

Take Care Patrick!



 
LOL!  Now that there is funny it is!  Heh!
Sounds a lot like Adrian Belew so much that I thought this might be a lost King Crimson track.

Rub my eyes, she is awake.
A bit too moody for me.
 
wicked cool piece (raises volume : )
Meh.
Was this something new from Stipe perhaps? Nope - something new! Such a throwback to Mitch Easter. The old Winston-Salem 80's underground scene lives on With this band. Love it.

Not quite sure what it is...... but this song gets the synapses firing! Like it a lot.....

 
Indeed. I was sitting here pondering what aspect or quality of this piece appeals to me and I can't really do it. This hangs together very well and draws me in.
Very moving.
(And I'm not just saying that because Patrick might be watching.)
 
Just bumped to 9.  Lots of atmosphere and pathos.
Thanks for this very good music. I listen to the album every day.
This reminds me of a long lost Boston based band from the 80's called O Positive...oddly enough Bill played Morphine right after this

Very much enjoy the song.
I do think it is amazing to see the band join in.
That's our Bill! Thanks Bill & co.
First listen. Impressive. Not surprised that the band is on RP. Others have hung around, also.
Awesome song. 
Thank you guys!

I just wanted to stop in and say thank you so much for the kind words..hell thanks for the mean words as well. Radio Paradise has been a great source to help our music get heard and to get feedback on what our fans, and new listeners think of the music.  Thank you so much for listening. We are hoping to get into the studio in the next few months to start the process of recording our next record.

It is reminiscent of a long defunct Canadien band "Twenty-Four Gone" and their biggest hits titled "Girl of Colour" and "Trust"...likable
Great for wake up in Cape Town, South Africa
The more I hear it, the more I like it...on my list to buy.
Very nice. 
cool
Soothing and spectacular.  Nice work.

really cool  (wish the lyrics were posted, I'm taken by this singer's style)
Wait a sec... if we turn off our devices we would not be able to hear this... which would be a shame because I am liking this!
...Suits my mood for a early morning coffee. 9

Thank's for this song ;)
bleh
Love this song, which I discovered through RP. After listening to the rest of the album, Atria, Oh Wyoming, and For Soon We Will be Airborne are my favorites. I also like Leggy and Submarine Down, but not quite as much as the first three.
well i love his voice. very happy to be in a time when people are singing again. like the doors-iness.

Their drummer is very good, yes?

I really like this. Reminds me of Rubyhorse.

Anyone else hearing "Kings of Leon"?
 

 

Yeah, it is reminiscent of KOL.  Which to me is not a good thing.
This is sounding a bit more like King Cobb Steelie now.
Sounds like.... hmmm... Radiohead, or, rather, Thom Yorke, but with actual musical instruments being used.
This is a great song.  There's something about it, something ethereal in the chorus that makes me want to hear it over and over.  The first time I heard it, it made me think of Sunny Day Real Estate.
for a moment I thought it was Mr.stipes who was singing, sounds a little bit like him in my ears.

INDICA is fine!
Lyrics draw me in...love song or heart anatomy or...Doesn't matter...it is all metaphor...great song.

Rather painful. Music to cut by. But Bill can make it work.

 
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Made me stop what I was doing, not very exciting anyway, to check it out.
Bill as always another interesting piece of music! 
Made me log in to weigh in. :) Gave it a 2. And Bill an 11 for pushing the aural envelope and painting masterful soundscapes, always. <3

"Turn off Your Devices" — appropriate name.  Made me RUN to my device to change the song.   So horribly irritating.  Sucko. Barfo.

Is this the singer from Black Heart Procession?
Nice!
I love this....
impressing...
in like Flynn...
pretty good for me so far
Stopped what I was doing to check out who this is. Very nice.
First heard on Radio Paradise, outstanding quality, much thanks.
yay!  new stuff... made me look up- but it'll be a few more listens before I decide what I really think... Cool that the group has a lot of support here on RP.

I can understand the wide dispersion of ratings on this song.  At different parts I felt a 7 or maybe an 8, at other times, 2 or 3...

Another interesting new find on RP.


Intriguing and mysterious! Love it!~ Nice work!
Liking this more every time it plays. Please keep it in the rotation Bill!

Edit: Sure would be nice if Amazon had it downloadable, but alas...

Congrats Patrick! You guys deserve it, my friend. Great record!. I'm so pleased. Thank you B&R
A little whiny for my taste. Maybe my comment is too?
Creepygood.
Made me come check the screen, thinking it's maybe something new by Kasabian...  Not much I can find so far about them, but I guess this group have been playing since at least '06... In any case, at first hearing, they sound pretty good!
