Schooner's
54º40' or Fight! debut will be released in August 2007, followed
in November by an EP. The full-length will be available for online-only
purchase in May.
The music is equal parts fresh and familiar, urgent and languorous,
morose and frenzied. The four-track, lo-fi quality of the early songs
hasn’t
been sacrificed to studio wizardry, evoking immediate parallels to
Guided by Voices; but there’s also a gritty, fuzzy anti-pop
flair that recalls Archers of Loaf and My Bloody Valentine, in addition
to the debonair brooding of The Smiths." - excerpt from Copper
Press article
" If you don't already know Schooner's music, you're missing out on
not only a great N.C. band, but a poetically inclined buffet of pop
perfection." - The Wilmington Star
