Won't you call me please...I'm still around...


The finest moment from one of the most under-heralded bands of the past 25 years. Their 2nd album, "Two Words", encapsulates all that was good about melodic, Huskers-indebted indie rock in the early 90s...Bob Reed and his band of deceptive neanderthals plunged and parried with a benevolent churn that was equal parts tenacious craftsmanship and resigned shrug. All and none of it mattered, and that was exactly as it was supposed to be. Truly a band of its time and a shoulda-woulda-coulda in the story of 90s underground rock. The Overwhelming Colorfast is dead, long live Overwhelming Colorfast...
