http://virb.com/headlights The Enemies EP was recorded at the band's farmhouse studio in a flourish. The EP was released to critical acclaim as a limited edition mail-order and tour-only EP. The first pressing sold out in a matter of a few short months. Headlights went on to share the stage with The Delgados, Mates of State, Magnolia Electric Co., The Appleseed Cast, Headphones, Mono, Earlimart, to name a few. Headlights has been on tour long and often since, first branching throughout the Midwest and finally crossing the country (and back, several times now). In the process, Wraight and Fein have come to fruition as songwriters. Songs from Kill Them With Kindness found their way into setlists throughout 2005, with each show leaving old fans agog and gaining new fans to boot. The separate instrumental entities of Headlights' three members seems to become more coherent with each sitting, highlighting the band's development of an uncanny knack for soaring peaks and energetic compositions. The brilliant desperation of The Enemies EP proves to be alive and well in the new compositions but now accompanying it is a flourish of pop-orchestra instrumentation and epic harmonies. The promise inherent in Headlights' debut LP brought The Enemies EP an official release in non-limited form in November of 2005, and Headlights consequentially became an official member of the Polyvinyl Record Co. family. 2006 was bright year for Headlights. Logging in 161 shows, releasing a split 7" with Ontario's Most Serene Republic (Arts & Crafts), and releasing their debut album Kill Them With Kindness. The band toured Europe for the first time ever in early 2007 and then went on a full US tour with Page France, including a stop at this year's SXSW. The band will spend the rest of the year holed up in their farmhouse writing and recording their sophomore album. ]]> Virb 2.0 (@headlights) en http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63924 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 18:10:13 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63924 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63918 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 17:53:41 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63918 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63905 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 17:41:40 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63905 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63904 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 17:40:46 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63904 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63900 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 17:33:37 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63900 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63898 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 17:33:05 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63898 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63896 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 17:32:28 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63896 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63895 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 17:31:35 -0700 http://virb.com/headlights/audio/63895 http://virb.com/headlights/videos/1732696 The video for the single from the debut full-length by Headlights.
