zero hour is litterbug’s third full-length release and the first since 2004’s kaiser and hollis releases. a dark album full of songs about life, death and birds, zero hour further refines litterbug’s sound. marc and janie are joined by the additions of spencer rose who brings to the band accomplished drumming, and bass and guitar playing, and amelia mori who adds singing, songwriting and the swirling sound of her classically trained violin playing. featured guests include larissa loyva (kellarissa, former p:ano, choir practice) providing punchy trumpets and beautiful harmonies, brady cranfield (womankind, former book of lists) plucking piano strings, and josh rose (robe and allied) on guitar. recorded in a baptist church in the summer/fall of 2008, zero hour has a full rich sound that highlights the band’s finest album to date.
