Farewell to Juliet's Full Description. |
|
Farewell to Juliet (FTJ) combines the modern/British rock sounds of bands like Catherine Wheel, Gene, and the oft-namechecked Radiohead with formative prog influences like Pink Floyd and Rush. Balancing these are concurrent loves of the mellower, melodic Over the Rhine and the roots/Americana style of Vigilantes of Love. Everybody in the band appreciates the Choir. |
