Star Quarter-Back!

Welcome to Star Quarter-Back!, Surface to Air's quarterly look-back at what went well, and what went horribly wrong over the last three of months of independent music mayhem.


This quarter has been a boisterous one, back-dropped by revolutionary upheavals and predictable warmongering and not so predictable (but somehow inevitable) planetary shudderings which unleashed their fury on a hopelessly nice but oh-so poorly positioned great nation of Japan. This edition of Star Quarter-Back! is dedicated to all the Japanese alt-bros and alt-girls who dig their rock and who will rock again in the very near future!


Let's commence reflections with an early release from the predictably ethereal (but now just plain late) Fleet Foxes' forthcoming long player. So stand back.. no, better still - sit back, and let the Foxes' sonic-harmonic-pleasantness envelope your mind with the first musical seasonings of 2011.

How's that reverb?!!


And if that's not enough to whet your damn appetite, let's slip back 30 years, this quarter, to a young man who knew a little something about drums...



Stay tuned music fans. Star Quarter-Back! has only just begun...
