Press:

"Wound In Wall is a darkly romantic record full of throbbing, single-note bass, alternately soaring and screeching guitar lines, icy-cold drum lines and vocals which are a mourning wail... I like this album a whole hell of a lot."
-Gordon Lamb (Flagpole Magazine)


"Here lies a noble attempt at traditional gothic beauty. With an obvious nod to bands like The Cure, Curfman’s mournful cries echo in the distance, veiled in a gauze of reverb... standout track “Fireflies Make Us Sick” might as well have been written by Depeche Mode themselves... unusual versatility... Curfman proves he can wallow with the best of them or move you to the dance floor."
-Michelle Gilzenrat (Southeast Performer)


"... distant and shadowy, yet not necessarily pop-averse... makes for perfect listening during post-midnight hours...
- Jeff Clark (Stomp & Stammer)


"... Wound In Wall is a very addictive album..."
- Bat-Cave


"...gives us that dim, melancholy feeling our inner '80s teenagers desire." -
- Babble & Beat Magazine


"If you fancy turning The Cure's "Seventeen Seconds", "Pornography" and "Faith" into a quartet, look no further than Feeding Fingers' "Wound In Wall".
- EvilSponge

FEEDING FINGERS SHED BABY TEETH


Post-punk/new-wave trio, Feeding Fingers, set to release their second album, Baby Teeth (a follow up to their 2007 release, Wound in Wall), in association with Stickfigure Records on January 27, 2009. Stickfigure Records Showcase 2009 prepared to kickoff a much anticipated tour for the group.


Finally, the group has collaborated and recorded a collection of music whose initial intent is to stand on its own two feet as a work in its own right and not as a by-product of Curfman's over-reaching ambition. Baby Teeth is the first proper Feeding Fingers album.

Feeding Fingers was formed in 2006 when musician & surrealist stop-motion puppet film animator, Justin Curfman, found himself with a catalog of music that he had written with the intention of someday as a film soundtrack that never found a home. Curfman realized that he had more music than films to marry it to. Rather than scrapping it, or locking it away in an anonymous notebook, he decided to form a band with the support of multi-instrumentalist Todd Caras and percussionist Daniel Hunt, with whom he could push the music out into the live arena.

One and one half of a year later: 40+ regional live shows with radio, press, and television support revolving around Feeding Fingers' first album, Wound in Wall (2007 - Stickfigure Records & Tephramedia). Two days after an exhausting arts and entertainment showcase in Atlanta in June of 2008, organized to help raise funds for the production of Curfman’s upcoming feature-length animated film, TICKS, Feeding Fingers put themselves under a rigorous recording schedule in their west Atlanta studio for the subsequent four months, where they produced their second album, Baby Teeth.

Being frequently compared to Joy Division, Cocteau Twins, The Cure, The Chameleons, Bauhaus, and the like, within the darker spectrum of the post-punk sub-genre, Feeding Fingers "... has a definite appeal to those who crave an element of dark surrealism in their music." A U.S. tour to support the album is being organized now and will last throughout 2009. There are also international touring ambitions amongst the group with the aid of Stickfigure Records and their recent collaboration with German distribution and promotional company, NetManagement Musik Verlag and Netherlands-based distribution company, Sounds for Sure.


Feeding Fingers' Baby Teeth CD release party and first show in the tour will take place on Saturday, January 24, 2009 at The Drunken Unicorn in Atlanta, GA. They will be headlining the Saturday night installment of the Stickfigure Records Showcase 2009 with support from fellow Stickfigure recording artists, Entertainment, Tenth to the Moon, and Lid Emba.
