In this week's 'Gum Drop we debuted triumphant Oceans standout "Eastern Europe" and asked vocalist/guitarist Tim Fletcher about the story behind the track. He let us know "It's all about takin...

Just from a glimpse at other reviews of the Stills' new album, I'm not alone in thinking that Logic Will Break Your Heart (2003) was the album we hoped would form the foundation the Stills would build on. I ate that thing up like ice cream, song after song. Their follow-up, Without Feathers (2006), did not carry out that hope. I can't remember a single song, only thinking, "WTH did you do w...

This one's a trip. The Stills have been particularly ominous in this Oceans Will Rise era. And come to think of it, the album title's apocalyptic undertones should have been an initial hint. Their MySpace update before the record's release about "scraping and gouging frantic, ripping through thick black unbelievable earth" could have been another. And come to think of it, the LP's lead video fo...

So I've been lost is a gray world, numb, blind. Putting one foot ahead of the other in an obscene parody of normalcy. "Trapped in trackless hours for they hang suspended", as alone as a man can be, surrounded by loved ones. When I find myself in times of trouble music usually sings to me, and its starting to again, but for a while I thought I might become trapped in this gray ugly world...

I'm thrilled to be the first to review the new Stills record.As with any release, The Stills Oceans Will Rise requires some serious grow time. Our friends from Montreal have put out two stellar records preceding this one and this third LP is as growth oriented as any "junior" record. Fortunately for me, it only took a day and a half to succumb to the lush and deep sounds of a record in the maki...

The band members are art students from Montreal, Quebec. On a two-month trip to New York City, they recorded several songs with the help of a four-track reco...

The Stiills don't have mascots, they have creatures. And even though it might make more sense for these Canucks to choose a moose or beaver as their animal likeness, they opt for crickets and crows. Except for Liam of course, whose red beard make him the perfect pirate.For more with THE STILLS, visit http://www.uncensoredinterview.com/artists/424-The-Stills
