When you pick a few Bob "every tree needs a little friend" Ross paintings for the cover tart you expect a band with sunny tunes. And sure enough, the Annuals , a six piece from Raleigh, NC, peddle joyous sounding indie tunes on their Such Fun album.

First off, I quite enjoy this band, Annuals. I find their music strikingly complex, and quite the mysterious journey even after repeated listens. Whenever I go on my Be He Me kicks, I often end up listening to the album straight through four - even five - times. Every song on the album is a gem in my opinion. A gem with intense brilliance and fire bursting through after you polish the dust ...

Annuals has been a name bandied about the blogoshere for a couple of years now, and although they've appeared in QBiM posts before, I never really gave them the time of day. It probably has to do with their status as a "blog band". I hate that label. And, more often than not, I don't particularly like the bands that get labeled as such... at least, I don't think I'll like them. And then, ...

You might have noticed the cover art of Annuals new album Such Fun is by none other than Bob Ross, the late painting-made-easy guru famous for his perm-fro hair and "happy trees" artistic style. When asked about the connection, Annuals had the following to say: "The way that Bob made his paintings, and the way he paints in particular, is pretty similar to the way that our band makes a record,"
