  Peel - Qxford
Download   |  

Earning notoriety for both their raw, raucous live shows and bad behavior, Peel quickly became fixtures in the Austin dive scene, and were picked up by Peek-A-Boo Records in late 2005. During 2006 Peel attended SXSW as Peek-A-Boo's freshest addition and worked on an album for the remainder of the year. The 2007 release of their debut "Peel" tore through the b-l-o-g-o-s-p-h-e-r-e, amidst widespread acclaim and comparisons to everyone from Brian Eno to Pavement to Architecture in Helsinki. The band followed their release with South and East Coast touring and rounded out the year playing shows with Sonic Youth, The Fiery Furnaces, Page France, and friends the Octopus Project.
