about

"Mercury Rev keyboardist Justin Russo casts another spell with his bewitching side project, The Silent League. Building on the lush, orchestral beauty of their 2006 debut, Russo and his seven-strong band layer harmonies and easy melodies reminiscent of the Eagles in the decorative brass, synths, bass and cello. But beneath this sweet trifle of sounds lie heavy-hearted lyrics that suggest Russo may be embroiled in a mid-life crisis, struggling to reconcile what he wanted with what he's got. "You're too old for rock'n'roll and too young to give up," he sings in Let It Roll. His music, too, has reached an impasse, with each lullaby seeping into the next. But this is one treat that will leave you craving more." - The Guardian
