Fantastic Sugarplastic

A while back, Dawn Eden wrote about how a member of the band The Sugarplastic, by introducing her to the works of G.K. Chesterton, was responsible for putting her on the path that led to her finding Christ and her eventual conversion to Catholicism. I decided to check this band out, so I listened to the stuff they have available on iTunes. I was so impressed and intrigued, I bought both albums that were available on iTunes at that time. (Since then, another album is now available as well as a solo album by one of the band's members. I plan to check those out very soon.)

Now, if I can't stand a certain band or type of music, I have no problems expressing myself. However, I'm terrible when it comes to writing reviews about music I love, because it's hard for me to put into words why I love the music. The Sugarplastic is one of the most unique and wonderful bands I've discovered in a long time. The music is poppy but yet complex. Strange and beautiful at the same time. I don't think I could ever thank Dawn enough for turning me on to this band.

Rather than try to describe them, I'm going to put a few songs from them on the Radio Blog. I'm also going to put some other stuff in there too. The Radio Blog is on the sidebar, but I'm going to make it extra easy for you to listen by putting the player right in this post.

The two albums by The Sugarplastic featured here are Will and 7x7x7.
