American Princes - Less and Less (CD) Barcode: 634457211421 Less and Less, American Princes' sophomore release for Yep Roc Records, documents a marked period of artistic growth for a band still pushing the limits. While still high on earnest, full-tilt indie rock, producer Alan Weatherhead (Sparklehorse, The Comas) has dispensed with their earlier, raw sound in favor of more-nuanced, pop-influenced territory. A 2005 tour with Lucero helped raise awareness of the Little Rock, AR band leading Popmatters to comment, "It's refreshing to hear an indie rock band that is more 'indie ROCK' than 'INDIE rock,'" and The Onion A/V Club to proclaim, "American Princes have a sound halfway between the expansive, apocalyptic pop-punk of Canadian bands like Constantines and the desperate, atonal boogie of Kings of Leon. Album number three can't come fast enough." Standard Jewel Case. Released: 4/4/06 Format: CD Genre: Rock
