Lies On The Prize is yet another collection of Mike Feuerstack's intricately constructed, beautifully-written songs. Feuerstack's lyrics are as witty as ever as he tackles topics like his own funeral ("Mahogany") and the "ennui" of punk rock ("Blue Sun"). This may also be Feuerstack's most straightforward collection of songs, but they're still...

Dripping with heartfelt sincerity, the latest offering from Mike Feuerstack feels strangely familiar. This isn't to say that The Wooden Stars guitarist is rehashing his past efforts. It's simply that the nine gorgeous compositions on The Silence Show possess a remarkable ability to mirror the deepest thoughts of listeners. Feuerstack's earnest...

When Mike Feuerstack, better known as Snailhouse, listened to Sappy Records' 2007 Snailhouse tribute album, Do You Want To Talk All Night?, he was instantly struck by how "weird" many of his songs were. "It's just really strange to hear all that music through other people's lenses," Feuerstack says on the phone from his home...
