MILTON AND THE DEVIL'S PARTY

How Wicked We've Become

2007-09-10

This group’s sound reminds one of the irreverent, literary sound of Elvis Costello. These guys are a rock band for thinking people, comprised of two English professors, grown men with jobs. Daniel Robinson specializes in the lyric tradition, British Romantic poets, and once studied with James Dickey (author of Deliverance). Producer Brian McTear is even nerdier, a Classics Major, having studied Virgil and Catillus in the original Latin. Milton and the Devils have really gotten their geek on with this, their second full length record. -Pete
