Wintersleep @ CMW 2006

in
By Erik Missio (CHARTattack) March 6, 2006 10:00 am

Grade: 79 Comment: Too many bands have been deemed "post-Pearl Jam" for invoking Eddie's signature baritone and a slew of anthemic...

Wintersleep — New Inheritors

in
By Scott Bryson (CHARTattack) June 1, 2010 3:01 pm
It would be crass to suggest that Wintersleep purposefully put another "Weighty Ghost" on New Inheritors just to cash in further on the popularity that song brought them and their previous full-length, Welcome To The Night Sky. There definitely is one here — the title track — but if anything, its presence (and quality) suggests Wintersleep do...

CHARTtrack: Wintersleep's "New Inheritors"

in
By CHARTattack Staff March 23, 2010 2:49 pm
"New Inheritors" will appear on Wintersleep's forthcoming album of the same name, out May 18. It's a bit less "Pearl-Jam-y" than the Halifax quintet's previous material, and while it's not got the same hooks found on tunes like "Weighty Ghost," it still sounds pretty great.
