During the grunge years of the 90's, this Seattle band put out album after album of pop-infused rock, going completely against the grain of what was going on musically at the time. They then split up. Blood/Candy is The Posies' second album since reuniting and the sixth release overall. Bringing along guest vocalists such as Lisa Lobsinger of Broken Social Scene and Hugh Cornwell of The Stranglers, The Posies continue to command respect from fellow musicians. Blood/Candy shows The Posies' persistance in combining melodic harmonies with fine production. Rebecca Ruth
