My apologies to Skull Alley, 32 Frames, Frontier(s), Brother Doubt and Sink ’Em Low for the misprint in this week’s LEO.
The 32 Frames reunion show/benefit for cancer research happens at Skull Alley Nov. 27, not at the Rudyard Kipling as we reported.
LEO regrets the error. —Mat Herron

Cheer for the Villain
Siren Falls
(SELF-RELEASED)
In the news business, disagreeing with the public proves tricky. You depend on them for feedback, insight, perspective and, yes, money, but they’re not always right. How Siren Falls finished as the second best original band and third best rock band in LEO’s Reader’s Choice poll this year defies taste. I won’t allege ballot-stuffing, but how could a readership as educated and multidimensional as Louisville’s champion the kind of tired hard-rock clichés served up on this EP? Held together by stale, clumsy arrangements, Siren Falls’ release shows it that hasn’t dug deep enough to examine the mistakes made by modern hard rock’s graveyard (Creed, Three Doors Down, Three Days Grace, et. al.). Consequently, Siren Falls repeats them. As for LEO’s polling, my internal investigation continues. —Mat Herron

Stuff this in your stocking, er, thumb drive. Ear X-tacy is offering a compilation of Louisville through its digital store at the CIMS Think Indie network. This is really, really exciting, because of the new output on this mother: King’s Daughters & Sons “Arc of the Absentee,” Frontier(s) “Abul Abbas” and Sandpaper Dolls “Swallow Them Whole,” among others.
