For a band whose tenure only dates back to the Spring of 2009, New Yorks Vs.Antelope is com- prised of a line-up that carries a long, but significant history: As part of their respective roles with J. MAJESTY, JETS TO BRAZIL, TEXAS IS THE REASON, RETISONIC and BIG COLLAPSE, its mem- bers have shared stages and floorspace and Best Western breakfasts for the better part of the last fifteen years. Which is, perhaps, why the profound sense of connection and longing that so successfully permeates "Vs.Antelope"-the bands self-titled debut-is not so much the belabored work of four strangers and a shot in the dark, but the sound of crystallized instinct.
