It's January. So those bitter gusts swirling 'round and pressing up against the skin like fearless, icy needles shouldn't be too much of a surprise. But we'd like to call your attention to at least one good thing about all this wintery business; it allows those artists who mess around in the kind of sounds that warm the body and soul to truly hit their mark.
One such band whose music benefits from the season at hand is School of Seven Bells. Theirs' is an infatuation with the kind of synthetic, glacial swells and cool to the touch tones that lift their hypnotic, dream pop to the heavens. We're big fans of the trio's somewhat recently released debut Alpinisms ( Ghostly International). And we'd like you to be as well.
So in this week's edition of The Hook Up, we're giving away a pair of S7B prize packs to a couple of new registrants to the site. For their efforts, our two winners will receive both a copy of Alpinisms, as well as a limited edition Half-Asleep 7" single. All you need to do is follow the simple instructions below. - David Pitz
a) Head to baeblemusic.com
