Brown Recluse: Night Train

Brilliant pop with tinges of soft rock, folk and lysergic jangle. From their recent EP The Soft Skin.

The brown recluse spider or violin spider, Loxosceles reclusa, is a well-known member of the family Sicariidae (formerly placed in a family “Loxoscelidae”). WikiPedia

With a name like they have, you might expect it to be difficult to find much information about them, but the spider reference is about all we can find about Brown Recluse. Their MySpace page says they are from Philadelphia, and the members of the band are, for the alphabetically inclined: meskers, timothy saddlemire, mark shellenberger, herbert steinberg, dan todd, jesse d. todd, patrick s. We’ll let the music speak, shall we?
