Despite their "Rising" and "Best New Music" status from Pitchfork.com and the non-stop praise for the 2009 re-release of album "Hospice", The Antlers remain as humble, friendly, hard-working and down-to-earth as you would hope. My Old Kentucky Blog brought the band to Indianapolis this Summer for an MOKB Presents show and the band showed us a different, and very exciting live side to the songs from "Hospice." The songs from "Hospice" were partially inspired by lead singer Peter Silberman's thoughts and feelings experienced during a visit to a loved one in a children's cancer ward, but despite the grim undertones, the album is hauntingly beautiful and uplifting.
