Ladyslipper is a three-piece Minneapolis band consisting of two childhood friends and a co-worker. All from different backgrounds in the Minneapolis music scene, the three together form a solid lineup of guitar, keyboards, and drums to create a charged and energizing sound that has been compared to the likes of bands such as Fugazi, Mission of Burma and Television.

The Time, Not The Weather is Ladyslipper's debut full-length, consisting of ten songs all written throughout the course of 2006, some while the band was a four-piece and the rest as three, at Electric Funeral Studio with Knol Tate, singer/guitarist of fellow Minneapolis band, Askeleton. The album's lyrics cover an array of topics from politics to drugs, and third person storytelling from the perspective of a mouse. Each song encases a thick grunge-esq, rock-garage sound, catchy and compelling; a striking debut for such a new band, which hints at much more to come.

The band has already started writing new songs for their second release, a planned 7 inch, and will be touring throughout the fall of 2007 in support of their debut.

Reviews and Honors:

"mighty rad"
- The Tripwire (7.20.07)

"Gravely vocals and gritty guitars are the crucifix upon which these punk artists sacrifice."
- Smother Magazine (7.07)

"This is one interesting piece of indie rock that features an equal amount of spirited vocals and loud bursts of instrumental joy."
- Side One: Track One (7.4.07)

"'Chicago' rocks out something fierce."
- I Rock I Roll (7.16.07)

"[Ladyslipper's] fiery, and sometimes angular, post-punk approach would seem a perfect fit for socially conscious music, but Ladyslipper aren't preaching or protesting so much as balancing on the hinge between the personal and the political."
- City Pages (7.07)
