Anathallo's brave new 'World'
Anathallo was one of my favorite discoveries of this year's South by Southwest Music Conference and its delicate "Floating World" album has filled that pretty, experimental space between Arcade Fire and Sigur Ros.
Backstage Pass pal Steve Knopper talks to the Mount Pleasant, Mich., band, describing "Floating World " as "the world's first rock and roll album based on a Japanese folk tale about a magical dog whose murder leads to an apocalypse of tornadoes, falling trees and cracked earth."
