Longwave plans to release the their 4th full-length album on November 11th on Original Signal.
Secrets Are Sinister is possibly Longwave's most varied album to date. It cracks out of the basic indie-pop mold with incessant and powerful guitar; at times the songs sound like they could very well stand up on their own without vocals (it doesn't help that Steve Schiltz sometimes sounds like he's gargling).
Many of the songs from Secrets Are Sinister are in that sort of Coldplay, U2, anthem-rock vein, and they would sound great bouncing off the walls of an arena. A lot of people will really dig this super accessible musical style, and that's precisely why probably an equal number of people (read: hipster music snobs) will write Longwave off as trivial pop faster than they dismissed the last Death Cab album.
Although perhaps working with Midas touch producers Dave Fridmann (The Flaming Lips, MGMT) and Peter Katis (The National, Interpol) Longwave will offer a little something for everyone on Secrets Are Sinister.
Longwave- No Direction
