Lions Of March

For you purists out there, we’re also happy to offer a real physical CD!

Sloppy North Carolina indie rockers nonetheless deliver mad charm. Shambling but melodic, they bring a fresh mix of both live archaic instrumentation and more modern digital ones, while their hooks sneak up on you after you’ve written them off as hacks.

Following the release of their 2004 debut, the core three piece band began recording new tracks during the Christmas holiday of that year. Over time, additional members were added, and a solid batch of tunes was developed. In-fighting and a lack of central direction, however, led to endless re-recordings, shifting of studios on numerous occasions, and bickering about the direction of material. Things finally ground to a permanent halt in the summer of 2007 – at the time, the band had swollen its ranks to a seven person roster.

In the wake of this dissolution, very little was accomplished for a number of years. Finally, the original core trio did manage to reunite and release a couple of new singles in 2011, and a pair more in 2012. Since the beginning of 2017 the three of them have worked intermittently on their sophomore album, and characterize the sessions as very laid back, with this year already having been more productive than any other since Scars Scatter was released. In May of 2019, they contribute their first new track in seven years to our volume 6 of our compilation album series.
