Phonograph: Sounds
built 606 days ago
"Phonograph makes folk songs dressed up in a warm. fuzzy electronic blanket. While a lot of bands that try to accomplish this sound unwelcoming and cold, Phonograph makes raw, organic tunes that would sound right at home at an alt-country festival and an indie-rock event." ~New Haven Register

The men of the indie outfit Phonograph know what they’re doing. Everything about the band fits together nicely to form a complete, definitive image. Its name, for example, is a real throwback to the origins of music; its outward appearance is that of five scruffy-looking guys from New York; and its sound conjures the mood of an after-hours affair at a local bar.

Five-piece roots-rock band Phonograph clutch rock 'n' roll by its roots, swinging that mother like a battleaxe. Live, old instruments throttle and scream from the speakers, demanding to be heard despite (or perhaps in spite) of the encroaching digital age. One can identify nuggets of old, American sounds -- the kind that formed the foundation of country and folk -- but, though Phonograph anchors itself in tradition, the band does more than evoke nostalgia. By mixing traditional influences with experiential and found sounds, Phonograph moves beyond the bounds of front-porch Americana, transporting the listener through the static.

The search for high fidelity has ... led to improvements in the phonograph itself. Modern hi-fi systems can reproduce sounds throughout the full range of hearing, without the accompanying noise and distortion created by earlier phonographs.

There is ... a Phonograph in The Minish Cap inside the rich mans house. It isn't an item you can carry around it just sits there and can be used for a Sound Test.
