Details:
The result of obsession, Vanilla to an Englishman is Secondary Modern''s second record. The record comes after much attention in the local (Southern Illinois) market—more than their fair share of press, a growing following, etc—creating the feeling that this is, somehow, the right time for the band to release an album. Vanilla to an Englishman is a far reaching, diverse piece, ranging from the guitar-rock intensity of “Peppermint Tea” to the cryptic lyricism and arrangements of “piano / guitar” and “Birds.” Sprinkle in the sparse folk of “Cocaine for Egos” and the alt-country / Mersey Beat of “Cigarettes”, and you have a damn fine album.

"Not only as creative as most groups who have ever called Little Egypt home, this trio has the musical chops to pull off their ambitions, even in live settings, and they wrap whatever they play in a sonically appealing pop package.

-Chris Wissman, Editor, Nightlife (“Best New Band of 2006” article)

“Suddenly I was encouraged that music was not dead in Southern Illinois…a more challenging mix of Beatle-esque pop, and smart late 70s post-punk.”

-Brent Stewart, Flipside

“[Vanilla to an Englishman is] structured with sometimes cryptic lyrics that flow over ballads and the kind of straight-up raw guitar rock like grandma use to make (that is, if your grandma was Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar, which would be something, really).”

-Andrew Voris, Nightlife
