Hidden Shoal is proud to announce the release of <i>Positive Haywires</i> by American duo Brother Earth. Brother Earth brings together the formidable talents of multi-instrumentalist Todd Tobias (Circus Devils) and vocalist Steve Five (The Library is on Fire).

On this their debut album for Hidden Shoal their shadowy, kaleidoscopic music vacillates between brooding textural pieces and exuberant rock-and-roll at the drop of a hat, chasing the ghosts of pop music past into a hall of cracked mirrors. The album’s wonderfully elastic aesthetics shift from dark and broken to sunny and playful in a matter of songs, while maintaining their own warped and beautiful logic. The album features the previously released singles 'Out Like a Lion' and 'City of Gold', both available for free download from the Brother Earth BandCamp site. We also have another treat for you in the form of a new music video for the fantastic album track 'Planet Wednesday'.
