Empty Cellar Records is proud to announce the release of the latest full-length from Chicago's Pillars and Tongues, the Pass and Crossings. After two full-lengths - and too many DIY releasestocount - Pillars and Tongues have returned from near-endless touring to deliver their most focused outing yet. Having spent years developing a uniquely textured sound, Pillars and Tongues have now given teeth their creation, and the doom is manifest. This is immediately apparent in the lyrical depths of the album opener, a mesmerizing track seemingly conjured by seduction from some very dark places. Lush violin lines swell and sing over pulsing drums, moving at a pace and with a weight that would not be out of place on an Earth record. Rolling desert drones permeate this album, interlaced with swampy melodies, adorned with moments of shimmering dream pop, and punctuated by heavy - almost tribal - percussion. The album plunges deep into spiritually imbued moments of minimalist trance, and emerges like some haunted vision of Peter Gabriel during cathartic groove-heavy climaxes on tracks "Thank You, Oaky" and "The Making Graceful". As with their previous album, Lay of Pilgrim Park (Empty Cellar), Pillars and Tongues continue to accumulate comparisons to the goth-drama and global grooves of early 4AD legends, Dead Can Dance. Mark Trecka's bold baritone pleads with absent forms and howls haunted poetry while Beth Remis' and Evan Hydzik's signature rhythmic singing weaves otherworldy harmonies throughout, vocals that Pitchfork referred to as "acrobatic". When Trecka, Remis, and Hydzik hit it just right, their voices and instruments blend to create something that is altogether far greater than the sum of their parts. This sort of bewitching alchemy is just the type of thing they have been honing for the past few years. A lush richness that few bands ever achieve without a reliance on electric instruments and layered effects. The Pass and the Crossings is a record full of dark moments and seductive pleas - a lustrous watermark in the ever-evolving history of Pillars and Tongues. Engineered by Mike Ursey and Theo Karon, and mastered by Paul Oldham. Performed with contributions by Ben Babbitt and Theo Karon from the band This is Cinema. Keeping with the times, the LP comes with a high quality digital download and a full color 16x23" poster.

Nice kids shoes
Size: 3.5 Big Kid, Color: Blue
I bought 2 pairs, one for my son and one for my daughter. they seem to run a tad snug so size up at least one size. My sons fit well right away, had to return and reorder my daughters pair, cause her size was too small, sized up twice and she now says they are super comfortable. They are proving to be fair sturdier than the other shoes I have bought them in the last year. The colors are true to the photos. I find them rather stylish, and my kids can easily get them on and off.. I've not had to clean them.

Must buy
Size: 2 Big Kid, Color: Blue
My 7yo loves doing his "magic trick" and stepping into his shoes. They slide on easy and stay on, they fit as expected. He says they are very comfortable and make him go very fast. Stylish as well
