After a very busy 2001--releasing two critically heralded albums, and touring throughout the year--AM/FM continue their productive streak. This time it's The Sky Is the New Ground, an EP of four all-new songs that take AM/FM's sound to a new level. The four songs build on top of the band's usual dense pop arrangements and add huge guitar symphonies and string arrangements for a fully fleshed-out sound. These are not four throw-away songs, but an EP of material that gives us all a glimpse of where these brilliant musicians are headed.
