Sunday New York Times features Punch Brothers
Sunday, 27 June 2010
 

The article, written by Jon Pareles in the Sunday Arts & Leisure section, calls Antifogmatic "...as radical as progressive bluegrass (or newgrass, or new acoustic music) can be, with chord progressions that can veer sideways at any moment, changeable meters and interludes that can hint at hoedowns or turn as contrapuntal and dissonant as chamber music." Read the full story here: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/27/arts/music/27playlist.html
Antifogmatic Debuts at #1 on Billboard Heatseekers Chart
Friday, 25 June 2010
 

Howdy Friends! We would like to thank all you wonderful people who bought Antifogmatic last week. It debuted at #1 on the Billboard Heatseeker chart. Not sure what that means, but I'm pretty sure that Heatseeker is the only Billboard category that rhymes with Pete Seeger. And that alone, if you ask me, is reason to celebrate! -Pickles, aka Noam Pikelny  http://bit.ly/3ENPds

Paste Magazine Feature on Punch Brothers
Thursday, 17 June 2010
 

The band is featured in a new profile in Paste magazine, which says: "On Antifogmatic, the guys sound more sure of themselves, more polished, more self-aware. The warm harmonies and crisp mandolin plucks and fiddle strains on tracks like 'Alex' and 'This Is the Song (Good Luck)' ring with the resounding clarity the album’s title suggests."  Read the full piece here: http://tinyurl.com/3yns3dd
