about

"The Longwalls have one of the sweetest Alt Country ballads I’ve heard in a while.." - Slowcoustic

"A perfect blend of Americana and catchy-as-heck pop." - Band in Boston

"Our Americana is one that can look one direction and see America, yet look the other direction and see the wild expanses of the untamed ocean. The Longwalls have captured this essence in Dark Academy." - Boston Band Crush

"This record has all the earmarks of a future classic and gets better with every listen." - The Noise

released 16 April 2010
Both darker and more varied than their 2008 debut (Field Guide for the Zombie Survivalist), The Longwalls' second release is A 21-minute trip down memory lane with Guided By Voices, Wilco, and a stack of comic books along for the ride. Songs about families, friends, spirits, and A-bombs stalk a line between The Longwalls' love of big twang and classic American indie rock.

Alan Wuorinen – vox, acoustic guitar, electric piano
Dan London – bass, backing vox
Kurt Von Stetten – drums, cello, hand percussion
Brandon Comstock – electric guitars, glockenspiel, backing vox

Songs by Alan Wuorinen (BMI) except "Ghosts" by Brandon (BMI) and "Saturday" by Dan. Music by The Longwalls.
