	What Is Music? Alaska Science Forum (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Music in nearly all musical cultures consists of organized, structured, rhythmic successions and superpositions of tones, selected from a very limited set of discrete pitches (the scales).
		The spatial arrangement of the vibration pattern along the basilar membrane leads to the sensation of subjective pitch; the relative intensities of the resonance regions caused by the overtones lead to the sensation of timbre.
		Recent advances in research on the perception of musical tones have led to new theories in musicology to explain tonal consonance and dissonance, harmony, tonal dominance, the sense of tonal return, and many practical aspects ranging from instrument performance techniques to music hall acoustics.

		With such strong ties to their California roots and close friends in Grandaddy there are certain to be unfair comparisons, but the band takes it all in stride.

	Built Like Alaska: Autumnland - PopMatters Music Review
		For this, their sophomore effort, Built Like Alaska should garner much well-deserved attention -- this is the kind of pleasant indie surprise that will strike a chord with many.
		Autumnland is all over the map, a diverse and grand exploration of moods and moments, nostalgia tinged with world-weariness and wry smiles, merging folk sensibility with flavors of baroque pop and a heavy dollop of casual independent rock.
		These songs are an eclectic mix of mostly sad thoughts, infused with small town ennui and presented in a haunting and hypnotic manner.

		One third of Sebadoh (Russell Pollard) and two thirds of Folk Implosion (Russell Pollard and Imaad Wasif), this indie rock duo has a quality pedigree, raising the expectations for their debut, Emotions.
		And, unlike similar groups that either take a few albums to hit their stride or the unlucky ones that never quite live up to the hype, Alaska!'s ability to write relaxed acoustic songs and loud, energetic rockers shines here.
		Sounding like Smith fronting a Mic City Sons-era Heatmiser song, the ready-to-breakdown folk-rock spectacular is one of the album's highlights, a reeling pop song that picks itself back up, dusts itself off, and keeps on going despite life's challenges.
