"Some dudes get older and do something like keeping an old muscle car in the garage that they go work on from time to time. We... have an indie rock band.... So I guess this record is the result of a few years of tinkering in the shop. At some point in 2022 we made a giant playlist with a bunch of songs from Styx, the Doobie Brothers, Herbie Hancock, April Wine, Funkadelic.. really whatever we were feeling and just got to work. This record is the result. Nothing too fancy, just some good times, rock and roll and a few guitar solos!"

For over twenty years, Bend Sinister has committed to an indie rock ethos and still show no signs of slowing. Forged in the spirit of defiant, highschool rock-n-roll idealism, the group came to life in 1999 when band leader Dan Moxon (vocals/keys) rallied some classmates to start writing and performing music influenced by math, indie, prog and alternative rock.

Singing about love, life on the road, and dogs, it wouldn't be odd to hear the tender longing of a Billy Joel piano ballad followed by the grimy, fuzzed-out riffing of Queens of the Stone Age with the dramatic crescendo of a Mozart symphony culminating in a fist-pumping BTO lumber-rock singalong chorus.

Produced by regular collaborator Ben Kaplan (Rare Americans, Five Alarm Funk), Mostly Great Things, the band’s first full-length album since 2018, acts as a triumphant return for Bend Sinister. Mostly Great Things is out now via Cordova Bay Records.
