Wildly melodic and inherently quirky, The Dimes’ sunny day indie-pop is born of the same Northwest, um, loins as The Decemberists, The Shins, Ben Gibbard and even recent Austin-to-Portland transplants, Spoon. Known for causing breakouts of unexpected hand clapping and foot stomping among fans at their shows, The Dimes boys have cooked up some delicious indiepop goodness on their new release, The Silent Generation.

The Dimes have been recently (Winter 2007-08)reviewed in SPIN Magazine (January ’08 edition), Magnet Magazine (January ’08 edition), USA Today, MSN.com, MTV.com, Large Hearted Boy Music Blog, and many, many more.
