This one's for the falcon

Whatever happened to Hum? Apparently, they no longer exist - a while ago I bought an album called "Glifted" by one of their former members (a disappointment), and another band member started a new band called Centaur. Hum had a reunion concert in Champaign, IL, last fall, and it's too bad I don't live over there, because I'll bet it was an awesome show. I've only heard the album Downward is Heavenward, but it's definitely one of my fave albums of the 90s (and the singing on "If You Are To Bloom" sounds eerily similar to the vocal stylings of the falcon). Anyway, it seems that Matt Talbott, former singer/guitarist for Hum, runs his own analog recording studio near Champaign, and it looks pretty cool. Check it out...it's a ways from you in Rochester, falcon-dude, but if you ever get a chance to vacation and you have a wad of cash, it seems like a pretty sweet place to throw down a few tracks.
