From Indian Lakes

From Indian Lakes released their debut full-length record, "The Man With Wooden Legs" on December 15, 2009. The band recorded the album with producer Dryw Owens (Consider the Thief) during the summer of 2009. The songs that were spawned out of those sessions reflect the bands' collective maturity and purpose while being surrounded by music that is otherwise derivative and lacking in any sort of defining positive characteristics. Joey Vannucchi's (vocals, guitar) lyrics and musical abilities are well beyond his years and show that this record is only the tip of the iceberg as far as the band's potential is concerned. You can't really describe these songs with buzzwords or spiffy adjectives. It can really only be summed up in this way: these songs are about the doubt, faith, love and hope that we experience everyday...only they're told in a way only these five young men from the mountains can express, you just have to listen.

"From Indian Lakes could easily be handpicked as one of the best alternative rock bands most people have never heard of. The California quintet blend intelligent and touching lyrics with entrancing rock to create a musical organism that sounds like Brand New’s poetic yet daring younger brother." -Blare Magazine
"...one of the better unknown efforts of 2009...if you are akin to tapestries of sonic guitars, vocals with impressive range, and a very personal approach filled with echoed pianos and acoustics, then “The Man With Wooden Legs” will feel like a worthy journey that will take you where few have traveled, and even less have succeeded in. Score: 4.5/5" -BringOneMixedReviews
"This album is overall sounds beautiful, and will be something new for those of you who enjoy Enter Shikari and Circa Survive."
