How I Learned to Write Backwards

The Aislers Set occupy an enviable place in the pop pantheon. Brimming with drunken romanticism, sharp pop sensibilities, and timeless melodies, the Aislers Set reveled in the history of great pop, spiking their classicist 60s-tinged tunes with post-punk energy and originality of bands like the Fire Engines and the June Brides. Every song is a meticulously constructed sound world, where the arrangement and instrumentation sublimely and uncannily bring each tune to completeness. Although they stopped playing and recording together by 2004 due to life commitments, their reputation has grown.
