The Willowz follow Rolling Stone "Best of 2005"
Review with All-Star Video Compilation DVD
January 18, 2005
LOS ANGELES - When Rolling Stone magazine picked the best albums of the
year, they slotted Anaheim's Willowz in among such huge contemporary
acts as the White Stripes, Bright Eyes and Sleater-Kinney, and legends
Neil Young, Van Morrison and the Rolling Stones themselves.
"Talk in
Circles" (Sympathy) earns such high praise for its "sweet-and-sour
cocktail of buzz-saw guitars," "catchy choruses" and "Stooges
propulsion."
Never a band to do anything the simple way, Richie James Follin and
company have hooked up with 20+ cutting-edge video directors to make a
provocative, high-energy DVD companion piece,
See In Squares, to their smash album,
Talk In Circles, plus extra bonus videos from songs off their previous album. Featured
directors include Michel Gondry (who used Willowz music to score the underpants dance
scene in
"Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"), Joe Rubalcaba collaborating
with Artificial Army, Ace Norton, Emmy Collins and John Michael McCarthy.
