The Loveblisters Prove That Not All Arizona Music Is Directly Influenced By The Gin Blossoms

As someone with two children, I don’t spend every night combing local clubs for the hottest rising talent these days, but every single time I’ve seen The Loveblisters perform they’ve turned out out one quality pop song after another. Given that there is no justice in this world—particularly the sort meted out by A&R types visiting the greater Phoenix area—I’ve watched act after act get record deals while the Loveblisters’ second album, The Nowhere West, sat on the shelf. (The fact that most of said deals will likely collapse upon themselves is cold comfort.) Well, it’s available now for free (just like that Nine Inch Nails band!), so if you would like to tell people you know a great band in Phoenix, figure out the strange and befuddling download process at the site and enjoy.
