After talking to James at Vintage Vinyl, it appears as though Julia Sets, one of my very favorite local bands for the last few years, has broken up. Their first album, the Last One Hundred Days of Julia Sets, was a wonder of twangy lo-fi pop, and may just be my favorite album to come out of St. Louis. I'd recommend that you pick up an album or two from Vintage Vinyl while you still can (I'm a big fan of Alternative to Extinction myself, but for anyone who wants some rock & rawl, Yes-Wave will do the job quite nicely). And for any cheapskates out there, they even put an album online for free.
