Have you headed over to Northwest Noise lately? We recently posted an interview with one of my favorite bands, The Dimes, on the site.
Only hours before Arctic Blast '08 hit our fair city, Tim, Gears, and myself sat down with Johnny, Pierre, and Ryan (Jake was on a train to Seattle) to discuss the band's upcoming album, their blogging efforts, and Pierre's lack of responding to friend requests on Facebook. The Dimes have been working on their second full length album for about a year now, featuring songs about the people and history of Boston. Johnny has posted a TON of new music for fans to sample on their blog here, including what may be my favorite song by the band 'Walden and the Willow Tree' which I dug immediately after hearing when he first played a demo for me last fall (you can hear it here). Talking with the band last week, the album is nearly done and currently they are working on the sequencing of the tracks. It seems as if the album will primarily focus on the songs about the exordinary women of Boston, while the songs about the gents may be featured on a bonus album to be released later.
We only posted Part 1 of 3 of the interview, so there's plenty more to come, including a few acoustic tracks that the guys recorded in my living room. I'll be sure to let y'all know when we have more of the interview up on the site.
The Dimes play a show with Chris Robley at the newly reopened Mississippi Studios on Friday March 27. Show starts at 9.
