One part Wilco, one part Spoon, and one part harsh Wisconsin weather all combine to produce this warm winter quilt of a record, though, through its cool tint of alt-country twang and beneath its warm, drawn-out pop melodies, Status Quo Ante Bellum effortlessly exudes the full array of its home state’s seasons. Lead singer and guitarist Peter Pisano’s smiley yet sardonic vocals carry the album as the band delicately pushes forward through each song. The instrumentation is that of a typical set-up of guitar, bass, drums, and keys with select textural additives that make for a full, well-executed sound with its altering dynamics and intricacies.
“It’s hard not to have high expectations for burgeoning local indie rock band The Wars of 1812. Seemingly out of nowhere, the band is preparing to pounce onto the scene with an album that recalls the pop structures of songwriting heavyweights like Spoon (who, in turn, recall the Beatles) and early Wilco.” - T.C.
