Curiosity Levels Increase.
It's when the coincidental mentions start to build up that I start to get interested. Reading the Q&A w/ Sufjan Stevens in the current Rolling Stone (issue 1016/1017), under "what is he listening to now" he mentions Midlake "The Trials of Van Occupanther." Midlake, Midlake, I think to myself, haven't I heard that name recently? Sure enough, a search of Snip (a snip search!) finds it's an album that was discussed in Paste Magazine issue #23 and there's a song on the sampler CD. A song I really like...
Hmmmmm, seems I may have to do some further (listening) research into this band...
