This band should be huge. I mean, they shouldn't be winning Grammies like truly amazing musicians e.g. Bon Iver and Skrillex, but by every taste-making measure Two Inch Astronaut have it where it counts. All joking aside, this is my favorite band right now. Every once in a while I listen to something that kinda stupifies me. It always happens the same way, in well explored genres, where I ask myself this question: Why haven't songs this good already been written? Red Pancake and Dark Energy is affirmation that good music will stay good forever, even if the future is paved with Iron & Wine by Mumford & Sons.
