(PR) The Modey Lemon 'Season Of Sweets' Out June 10. Us Tour Begins June 18. The Modey Lemon, rip through 3 years of silence with their new record, Season Of Sweets.

With one foot in the sci-fi darkness of their last record The Curious City, one foot in their past garage angst-ridden wreckage and one foot in the Krautrock brilliance of the German Frontier (three feet?) Season Of Sweets is a fuzzed out, driving masterpiece with catchy hooks beaten to death by guitar/synth mayhem and the anchor of Paul Quattrone's drums of passion.

As primitive as it is futuristic, Modey Lemon is recreating the present, molecule by molecule, every second of every breath. The Trio from Pittsburgh returns with another helping of sugary sweetness that rots your teeth and leaves you wanting more. Recorded during the dead of winter in Pittsburgh, PA, at the Brass Factory and mixed and recorded by Jason Kirker, member and principal noisemaker.

The last 2 years have been very interesting for the band. After signing with Mute, recording in the UK and playing the granddaddy of all venues, The Fillmore, opening for Dinosaur Jr., the band took some time away to regroup and work on new material. The result is Season Of Sweets. Driven by drummer extraordinaire Paul Quattrone, the songs twist and turn through the imagery and dark rock that has made Modey Lemon famous. Jason Kirker (engineer and band member) uses an array of keyboards, Moog's and an assortment of other instruments to create the band's massive sound. But at the core of this album is the energy and mysticism singer Phil Boyd leads you on - a truly brilliant creation, with a ton of heart and soul.
