   About the Long Winters
The Long Winters are the greatest indie-rock band in the Americas.

Obviously there are plenty of really great bands out there and we don't want to take anything away from them in terms of credit for their accomplishments, but The Long Winters are simply the greatest for a variety of reasons.

First, they feature a rotating line-up of different mustaches and beards which appeal to all indie rock beard-fanciers, plus they rip off the Beach Boys in exactly the right amounts without going over.

The Long Winters have "paid their dues." In fact, their dues are paid all the way up to spring quarter of 2010. Also, The Long Winters know how to flirt in a light and fun way without leading you on, but they're not afraid of commitment.

The Long Winters know which staples to buy in bulk, and which to get fresh from local grocers.

In short, being a fan of The Long Winters is a zero-risk proposition. You are Guaranteed to Be Pleased.

All Long Winters albums are now available ON VINYL!! Get them one at a time or order the very limited box set with all four. Order them from The Control Group today!

Stream our most recent record Putting the Days to Bed on Mammothpress.com

Check out our website full of fun facts.

And visit The Long Winters Library fan site from the Netherlands.

Or stop by our cool record label to buy our records and groovy schwag!

There are people
Who would keep a
Weary eye upon a peep hole
Of a door
Looking for
Someone to befriend before
Saying simply
I am guilty
Of the want to have you with me
So it goes
We are those
Who will say aloud in prose
Thanks to thee
For finding we
The wacky Atma Family
We won’t run
From what you've done
We accept you as our chum
We won't hide
If you come by
We accept you in our Pride
Of Lion Cubs
Smoking dubs
Or if your sober, we don't judge
Thanks again,
Know its been
A creamy treat to call you "Friend"

Three cheers For Beers! (Or Ginger-ale)

Love

The Atma

Thanks again for a class gig in Valencia. We are holding you to your promise of 6 months. Needless to say plenty more booze was consumed after you left us and I had the worst fucking hangovever I have had in years. I blame you for making me so damn happy, those songs are priceless.
Merci beaucoup, Nick

There's an ancient song by Gentle Giant called "Three Weeks in Spain" that you guys need to cover. To increase your "obscure-topical-cool" vibe.
