Download "Phonebook Pillow" by Ice Palace

I love bands that can make dreary music that's full of anguish, but somehow still really catchy. That's what drew me to a group out of Minneapolis, Minn. called Ice Palace. The title of the band's latest CD, Wonder Subtly Crushing Us, sort of says everything you need to know about the music. It's crunchy and noisy and dark. But there's also a youthful and curious wonder in the songs, and even a little humor in titles like "Pirate By Thirty" or "Slow Motion Fall." But it was the opening cut that got stuck in my head. It's called "Phonebook Pillow."
