mole city is not in the tradition or deviating from the tradition – it is the tradition. after two decades of launching drums, guitars and pianos through the shifting interzones between harmony and chaos (moonlighting along the way with the likes of sleater-kinney, wild flag, elliott smith, built to spill and a long list of others), quasi are a genre of their own - they write songs in the style of quasi, and mole city is the quasi song book: parlour sing-alongs for the last century.
now in their 20th year as a band, and a two-piece once again, sam coomes and janet weis hand-deliver the double album/liberation cookbook/encyclopedia of kicking ass, mole city, to those of us who still care about well-built, homemade objects crafted with integrity, spirit, fire, and skill.
