The Myriad - With Arrows, With Poise (2008)
This is a guest post written by reader Plgnomey.
FTN has come along with this fine release which is sure to please all fans of indie music with The Myriads soft-more release and major label debut release i think they have created an exciting album where there isn’t a week link like we are used to with most album these days . Seattle-based rockers The Myriad had prime TV show placement to help get the proverbial ball rolling. In addition to placement on “The Real World: Denver,” the band sealed its “Emerging Artists” status by getting handpicked by MTV for the “Dew Circuit Breakout” challenge, which The Myriad ended up winning, thanks to several million voters.
So to say that expectations are high for the band’s Koch Records’ debut, With Arrows, With Poise, is a serious understatement. But thanks to a pitch-perfect set list packed with one clever song after the next, rock & roll fans won’t leave the listening experience disappointed. In fact, there’s not a dud in the 12-track bunch, a rarity in our singles-driven, iPod age.
What makes these songs really pop is an intuitive knack for melody (see “Forget What You Came For” for the band’s best work) and the polished yet decidedly artsy production from Michael Ilbert (The Cardigans, Kent, The Hives). Just when the listener is expecting the song to head in a certain direction, there’s one surprising turn after the next, which leads to a rewarding listening experience that should easily cement the band’s status as “one to watch.”

So, is it FTN or FNT that has released this one? As you say FTN in the beginning, but the release name says FNT. Can’t belive you got that one wrong =P
… isn’t a weak link like we are used to …
sorry bout all the mistakes guys was a quick cut and paste job at about 3am and is a classic example of why you should always check over you work (embarrassed face).
there must be some extremely bored people who read these posts and are obsessive in their pedantic fault-finding
Don’t worry, it’s a nice article, Lesson learned

it so funny how there is always a band member who looks away from the camera to the side like he doesn’t care.
