LaarksAn Exaltation Of Laarks
Absolutely Kosher Records [2009]

Fire Drill Review:
Wisconsin's Laarks have all the components of a solid indie rock band that includes swirling guitars, melodic hooks and quick lyrical turns. It is a debut record that has been in the works since March 2007 and was totally completed by the band, which covers everything from the recording to the artwork, as An Exaltation Of Laarks has been out independently since early this year and Absolutely Kosher has just now gave it an official release. The record is full of energy that sparks quickly with guitar rock outs and strong lead vocals from singer/songwriter/keyboarder Ian Jacoby. It actually is the records textured strategic pauses and quick moments of reflection that complete An Exaltation Of Laarks and make it a debut well worthy of checking out!
