among its ranks. The band's musical arsenal is even bigger than its roster, featuring instruments as diverse as analog synths and samplers, glockenspiel, tuba, clarinet, and recorder along with the more predictable drums, bass, and guitar.
Architecture in Helsinki
began playing in 2000, crafting a mix of indie,
electronic, and pop that they recorded and occasionally performed live. The collective began recording its debut album,
Fingers Crossed
, in 2002 in a variety of places ranging from beach houses to proper studios; Bar None released the album in spring 2004. Following a hectic year of touring and recording, the group turned around another album,
In Case We Die
, in 2005. The release drew glowing reviews, fixing
Architecture in Helsinki
as one of that year's most promising and idiosyncratic indie acts. Frontman and primary songwriter
Bird
relocated to Brooklyn a year later, where he and producer
James Cecil
put the finishing touches on the group's third effort,
Places Like This
. The album was released on Polyvinyl in 2007. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
