"I like books where people have battle axes"- Ryan

About Me

Angel Eyes is a band from the Chicagoland area consisting of Brendan, Nader, Ryan and Todd. We formed in 2003, have played some shows and recorded some records.
As of early 2008, we have three releases. Head over to the music page of our website if you’re interested in hearing them or picking them up.
You can stream our most recent release, "...And For a Roof a Sky Full of Stars" at our Last.Fm page . We didn't bother to put one of the songs from that in the music player up there, b/c MySpace is kind of annoying and we would rather you go visit our website or Last.Fm page if you want to check us out.
We're almost done recording a song (19 minutes!! Whoo!) for a split LP with the mighty A Fine Boat, That Coffin, from Germany. Look for it later this year.
If you're interested in procuring yourself a copy of one of our cds, but you want to skip going to our website, might we suggest the following lovely online stores:
Directly From the Label: Underground Communique
Or from any number of cool distros that carry us:
29 north records
Aquarius Records
Crucial Blast
Ebullition Records
Handstand Records
Interpunk
No Idea Records
Stickfigure Distro
Relapse Records
also: you can download our entire first ep "01" at our website vanfuckingcleef . click where it says "music" on the side. enjoy. or don't whatever.
I'm also going to point out that Brendan has a project under the name Ravenholm is Dead , I (Todd) have a project under the name There is Nothing Buried That Will Not Be Raised , and Ryan and Myself run a music review blog called I'm the Most Important Fucking Person in the World .
Got all that?

the 21st century, so far, is turning out to be pretty much like the 20 centuries before it

is it too much to ask that people in this world, being that it's now officially the 21st century (i.e. "the future"), act in a semi-rational way and cut out all the magical thinking?let's review:1) we...
