The Envy Corps’ indie quasi-anthems, replete with galvanizing arrangements, congratulatory rhythms and elasticized melodies have garnered the Des Moines-based band the affection of the attentive Midwest and fans both nationally and internationally.

After the release of their major label debut, Dwell, in 2008, The Envy Corps have retreated back to the studio to record their anticipated sophomore album, tentatively entitled It Culls You.

I hear the Radiohead all over the place. Not a bad thing though. These guys are really good.

also i see a lot of people comparing this music to radiohead. I definitely hear the similarities in tone but the general aesthetic and vibe of this band is going in a different direction than radiohead did, especially concerning the more upbeat songs. Not to mention radiohead is hot off the release of King of Limbs, a much more electronically produced (and awesome) album. I DID however, hear some interesting bass tones a couple songs in to It Culls You that reminded me of the all too popular wubwub bass in modern dubstep. Sounds pretty good though :p

on my first listen to the new lp right now, pretty stoked with it so far. I'm actually pretty glad that it's different from Dwell (one of my favorite albums ever), because you never like to see a band just endlessly repeating itself. Can't wait to hear what this band does down the road, will definitely be following them.

No doubt. The band made the album they wanted to make, and not what a major label wanted them to make. Having said that, I think Dwell played to all their strengths and is essentially a bonafide masterpiece. Not to mention that the Kid Gloves EP was made without major label interference and I think the general sound on that collection of songs is superior to It Culls You.

@Acquiescence completely agree. It Culls You is a very different sounding album. Maybe because the band didn't have the restrictions of being attached to Mercury Records?
