Brandtson is an indie rock/electronic band that formed in 1996 in Cleveland, Ohio. It was originally a side project for Myk Porter, the vocalist of the hardcore band, SixFeetDeep. Porter got his friend Jared Jolley to play drums in the band. Soon thereafter, SixFeetDeep broke up and Brandtson became a full-time band with the addition of Matt Traxler (also of Sixfeetdeep) on guitar and John Sayre on bass. Their first release was on Traxler’s indie label, Steadfast Records and was entitled, Letterbox. A year later it was re-released by Deep Elm Records. The band went on to release the Let’s Call It A Day seven inch on Velvet Blue Music and also had a song on Volume Two of the Emo Diaries compilation. In 1999 Deep Elm put out Fallen Star Collection and it was followed by the Trying to Figure Each Other Out EP in 2000. Deep Elm also put out the “Dial in Sounds” album in 2002 and the “Death and Taxes” EP in 2003. In 2004, the band switched to The Militia Group for the release of “Send us a Signal”. Over the course of these years, the band toured North America, Europe, Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong. Sayre left the band in 2005 and was replaced by Furnace St.’s Adam Boose, who also added in some electronic manipulation of their sound. Their latest release, “Hello, Control” was released in May of 2006.

i think Fallen Star Collection is their best full length album. then Dial in Sounds and Letterbox. at first listen to Send Us A Signal you could tell they switched labels for that release, and i wasn't a fan of where they seemed to be heading. and i honestly haven't given Hello, Control a few fair listens so i dunno about that album. what i do know is Fallen Star Collection is the shit and makes me happy.

I enjoy Hello, Control if I view it outside of the rest of Brandtson's discog. As a separate album, it's good, but in comparison to their previous works it is most definitely their worst effort. I absolutely LOVED Send Us A Signal. Easily my favorite album ever and I adore the rest of their discog. I wish they would come back and start making new music in the realm of their earlier work. I miss this band so much, it's not even funny.

Hello, Control is not that bad. It's not up to par with Dial in Sounds, but just because they used electronics and sang about dancing doesn't make the music automatically awful. It's more shallow maybe, but not terrible.
