When rock bands break up, the last straw is always the same. Love, drugs, busses, airports, euphemistic creative differences. Clashing egos. It's dull, it's repetitious.

Minneapolis-based Carroll, one of the most colorful, carefully honed acts in indie rock, are many things: young, vibrant, contemplative. But perhaps most interestingly, they're a case study in how four distinct creative voices can coalesce into one balanced, relentlessly engaging sound.
