Sleeping People have packed a lot into the two years since the release of their sleeper hit (no pun intended) of a debut album. Growing advances Sleeping People as a band in every way. It's faster, more aggressive, more thoughtful and more dynamic than their debut. Engineered by Ben Moore (Hot Snakes, The Black Heart Procession), the songs are pushed to extremes, sparking an addictive adrenaline high that is ultimately eased by Pinback's Rob Crow's surprise appearance at the conclusion of the album, his saccharine vocals providing a perfect, blissful freefall. Like the band itself 'Growing' embraces change with an improvisational flair that is both confounding and consuming.
