Song of the Day: Tonight the City Skyline – Mantra For A Dark Lit December
April 29th, 2011 | 
Author:
Hot off the press Tonight the City Skyline’s self titled second album, released April 19th this month, is the latest work from Martin Moore and Brian Farvour out of Milwaukee, WI. I’m honored to review this group which came to my attention through direct submission by Martin.
The 7 song indie pop rock album moves between softer piano trimmed love songs and pounding guitar riffed anthems of desperation and longing. The group’s lyrics though simple and honest are able to pack a passionate punch and hit hard for
me in this song Mantra For A Dark Lit December.
Be sure to listen to the entire album Tonight the City Skyline on SoundCloud.
You can connect with them on Facebook or Twitter through their official website here.
Their album was just released this month and is for sale at iTunes & Amazon at the links below.

Nice find. It’s good to see bands can still make indie/rock/pop without sucking. This is actually a really fun album to listen to especially The Morning and Mantra For A Dark Lit December, I may have to sneak over to iTunes and spend some of today’s paycheck
