Thanks to the Friend of DC9 who pointed this Pitchfork review out to us before we got around to our own daily surfing this morning.

It's a review of Denton's Pyramids' debut, self-titled record. And according to the 'forker who wrote this piece, the record's, oh, a 6.5 (which, case you forgot, means it's not quite Dual Hawks). This, despite the generally positive tone of the review.

Funniest thing 'bout Pyramids, though, is that, despite being signed to Hydra Head, and despite supposedly calling Denton home, no one seems to know who they are. Plus, they apparently refuse to play live. --Pete Freedman
