Clean-up

[edit]

This article is poorly formatted, reads like a review, and is biased. It needs citations of factual information rather than editorial commentary and descriptive prose. I may have cleanup-tagged it using the incorrect technique, but it needs work regardless. -- user:phreyan 10 November 19:39PM

Notability

[edit]

All indications are that Decibully are the most notable nationally-recognized, underground rock act in Milwaukee as of this writing (December 4, 2005). Yet, they remain somewhat of an obscurity in their hometown. Their City of Festivals LP, released in the fall of 2003, hung on as a favorite of those in the know in Milwaukee for about a year and a half until the release of the latest record, Sing Out America! in March of 2005. While they have been recognized in numerous national publications as a band worth investigating, their reputation has grown slowly in the beer city. Their brand of country-tinged post-psych-rock is a complex, layered dish that can taste and feel quite different in parts, depending on the song and the approach to it. Their live shows have garnered much local praise which has kept them on the lips of people who haven't yet heard their records. It stands as a mystery why so many bands have to leave home to see any semblance of appreciation, but such is the business of music. Their low profile may work in their favor in the long run. It remains to be seen whether the adage is true that the slow burn will burn the longest. Hopefully, they don't stagnate and they will continue to feel compelled to push the boundaries of their songwriting abilities, not to mention the prickly business of getting their music heard. Milwaukee desires something uniquely its own again.
