Album Of The Day: The Brothers Martin by The Brothers Martin
The Brothers Martin are Jason Martin (Starflyer 59) and Ronnie Martin (Joy Electric). Yes, they are actual brothers and both major forces in the indie rock scene. So why not be a force together as well? This album is the only release under this name and it mixes Ronnie Martin's synths and other electronic sounds with Jason Martin's guitars. They take turns on writing and vocals on this 10-track album. I think I like this album more than Starflyer 59 or Joy Electric albums, but I'm not sure why. And I'm pretty sure most people prefer those other bands from the brothers more than this album. It's not a long album, but it's an energetic collection of music mixing fuzzy guitars and waves of synthesizers.
Release Year: 2007
