"It's been the better part of a decade since Bill Majoros last came on our radar with his old group, Flux A.D., who disbanded following the 2002 LP Transatlanticthoughts. The Hamilton, ON-based songwriter has since begun a new project, the Foreign Films, recently releasing a self-titled EP as a free download from his Bandcamp site.[5] The rocking four-song collection, which pairs gritty guitars with lush baroque pop flourishes. The Foreign Films previously released the epic 22-song LP Distant Star back in 2007." [6][7][8]
