» Buy The Crumbling Empire Of White People An earth-answer to the outerspace journey of At Apogee, this latest album is Mr. Smolin's take on love and loss, politics, religion, and other burdens of our age. Dizzy with a world in retrograde, the only superpower teetering under the weight of its own excess, Mr. Smolin has applied his insightful mind and melodic grace toward concocting this latest batch of apocalyptic pop songs, a brain-tonic laced with luscious production and whopping awesome fun, the perfect soundtrack for those seeking illumination, mindfulness, wit, heart, and a real good time. Features the oft-requested "Mata Hari," "Face The World," "Tilting," "Knock This Gulag Down" and a bunch more Shmotunes as well. Once again produced by Stew. Album art by Gary Baseman. The Crumbling Empire Of White People is currently available for purchase online on CD or via download at cdbaby.com, amazon.com or, for downloads only, at the iTunes Music Store At Apogee (2004)
Mr. Smolin's debut album. A lush, non-linear song-cycle produced by Stew and featuring a bevy of hitmen from L.A.'s indie-pop mafia. With its Kierkegaardian vibe and lonesome echoes, At Apogee is a story of distance giving way to proximity, of a disembodied hero succumbing to the gravity of Love. Highlights include Smolin favorites "The Earth Keeps Turning On," "Angels," "Casper," "The Rodeo" and many more. Village Voice music critic Richard Gehr has dubbed Smolin's style on At Apogee "psychedelic cabaret music." At Apogee is currently avaiable for purchase online on CD or via download cdbaby.com and at amazon.com or, for downloads only, at the iTunes Music Store |
