[mp3] Candy Claws // Snow Face

Written on January 3, 2012 by Andy in Music

This song, from Fort Collins, Colorado band Candy Claws, was sent around to the blogs prior to Christmas, and it was billed as a holiday song. And while it could be a holiday song just based on the form of precipitation it references, we didn’t have any snow for Christmas this year. (In fact, the first significant snowfall in Rochester happened yesterday/is happening now.)

The song itself is indicative of what the band does if you hadn’t heard them previously, like I hadn’t. There are hushed vocals, a lighter feel to the actual music. In fact, “Snow Face” doesn’t feel particularly winter-related at all. It feels like the end of spring, when everything’s opening up again. And as I face the prospect of going out to brush the snow off of my car, that reminder is completely fine with me.

Candy Claws has an extensive amount of releases available for streaming and/or purchasing at their Bandcamp page, from other wintery themed tracks to a trio of full length albums. There’s much to explore if you’re partial to the band’s wistful dream pop.

tym-pan-o-gram (noun)
an examination used to test the condition of the middle ear and mobility of the eardrum, and the conduction bones by creating variations of air pressure in the ear canal.

Basically, it sounded like a cool name for a blog intended to be primarily about music. We’d both had other blogs previously, but over beers it was decided that more damage could be done as a joint venture. And here we are.

We share a passion for the undiscovered and under-appreciated, and hope that you’ll be able to find something you love as well.

I like music. I can't describe how I came to like the music I do, because I don't know how or why, I just do.

Many years ago, Napoleon's brother, my great-great-great-great-great-great Grandfather, came to America. He was asked his name on Ellis Island while being processed as an immigrant. Not understanding English, he was under the impression that he was being asked how he had arrived in the new land. So he turned around and pointed at the sea vessel and said, 'LaBarge.'

I come by my music taste of my own free will. My friends listened to 2Pac, my parents to contemporary Christian and me? Sunny Day Real Estate. I can’t explain it.
