Peter Wolf Crier: Inter-Be
There are times as a music blogger when I wish I could flip a switch and bring everyone’s attention to a band that I think the music blogging world should be aware of. Peter Wolf Crier sparks this emotion in me.
You may remember reading about a Minneapolis band called The Wars of 1812 that I wrote about two years ago. Since our initial post about The Wars of 1812, the band recorded an album with Justin and Nate Vernon of Bon Iver, breaking up not long after.
Peter Pisano of The Wars of 1812 began writing and recording an album with Brian Moen of The Shouting Matches (a band that Justin Vernon is in). The result of Peter’s work with Brian is a band called Peter Wolf Crier.
Peter Wolf Crier’s debut album, Inter-Be, is an album I immediately felt connected to. Vocals seem to be fed through guitar amps to give it an edge to these folksy songs. The guitars have a slight fuzzy sound as they lay a backdrop with dark images. It has a raw feel, yet not at the expense of quality.
Working with Jeremey Catterton, a theater director, Peter Wolf Crier performed the album for three weeks in a rented house in St. Paul. Together they put together a “movement based abstract work,” moving the performance to different rooms of the house every night. (3-Minute Egg)

Puddlegum began in 1997 as one of the first online music magazines. It is managed by Flick, and has gained respect from many in the recording industry.
Over the years Puddlegum has accomplished quite a few things we are proud of:
Being mentioned by Thom Yorke during a BBC Radio interview (concerning our Tens Theory), and being written about in Rolling Stone. We have also made the front page of TUAW, Digg, and VH1’s Best Week Ever, and have been featured on USA Today, and Reuters.
