More Info:
Numbered Days is the second album of luminous, infectious noise-pop by Los Angeles' The Meeting Places. On their sophomore record the quartet has written ten new songs that craftily combine melodic indie-pop with the tremulous sound atmospheres first explored on their debut Find Yourself Along the Way (Words on Music, 2003). Numbered Days was recorded at the Ship by Jim Fairchild (Grandaddy, Earlimart). with ten songs clocking in at thirty-three minutes, Numbered Days evokes a leaner, more urgent approach to songwriting, in the spirit of the Jesus and Mary Chain's Dark lands or the Shins' Oh, Inverted World. The Meeting Place's renowned mastery of noise-pop shines through in the gorgeous melodies of 'Until It's Gone' and in the blistering, darker guitar work of 'Sink Into Stone' - two songs on different ends of the lyrical and sonic spectrum. The Meeting Places, never an end itself, only a means to an end.
