notes
Apollo Quartet, created in the summer of 2002, has had a promising start. After releasing a self-produced debut entitled "Modern History," the group landed legendary indie artist and producer J Robbins for their latest release, "The Eleventh Hour." The album is a balanced post-rock affair, toting catchy, energy-packed hits like "This Time Around" with more introspective tunes like "The Last Great Holdout" and the closing "Wrapped in Silence."
Currently, Apollo Quartet is working on new material and playing shows frequently in the southeast.
Members are Wes Jones: vocals and guitar, Sam Marine: guitar, Josh Jenkins: bass, Chris Marine: drums.

Stellar.
author: Tim WilliamsThis album is eclectic beauty at it's best. The purity of emotion put forth by these strapping lads is such that anyone can relate to it's melodical message. Universal, explosive, and yet subtle, and imaginative are things that come to mind when listening. One of the most under estimated groups of the genre. Buy the cd and be content.
Awesome is all I can say.
author: Vanessa JenkinsThis Band has come a long way!! They will be on everyone's radio soon!! If you don't have a copy of The Eleventh Hour you need to get it!!
A great debut promising great things to come.
author: JohnAll right so I might be a bit biased on this one, seeing as how I grew up with these guys but still... it's a damn good album. I will admit they are dabbling in a genre that I don't relate to that much ( namely emo and I know they will probably be pissed at me for calling their stuff emo)but this is still a solid album. It's a smart blend of pop asthetics and jazzy type experimentation. Hard driving where it needs to be but far from redundent. It's one hell of a start from a bunch of guys who have a lot of potential. My only regret is the fact that I am stranded in Hawaii and I wont be able to hear them live any time soon.
Great musicianship + a great producer = a great album
author: Bill RupyA little mathy, a little jazzy, very rocking and well-produced, "The Eleventh Hour" has made this picky 40-something listener a new fan of Apollo Quartet! (I was already a fan of J. Robbins!)
