Heat by Lucy Michelle and the Velvet Lapelles Label: Redeye Released: May 29, 2012 The fourth full-length album from this Minnesota indie folk/rock sextet. Many upbeat tunes filled with nice melodies/smooth female vocals, sweet sounding guitar, steady head-bobbing drum beats, and generally nostalgic folksy tunes. No FCCs. - Sonja L, 2/7/13 1. (2:55) Just A Kid - Upbeat folk/rock tune with sweet lyrics. A nice twangy guitar riff thrown in. Lead vocalist has smooth but strong voice. 2. (4:02) West - Slower indie rock tune with steady drum beat and soulful, body-swaying vocals. 3. (3:20) Undone - Very upbeat, folksy tune with strong, almost aggressive lyrics/vocals. 4. (4:07) Million Things - Slow, nostalgic song with nice strings and ghostly chanting in background. 5. (3:41) Catacombs - Solid indie rock tune with background accordion that gives the track a polka feel. 6. (3:29) Summer Beach - Opens with nice bass solo, soon followed by drums and nice lilting guitar. More strings in this track. Nostalgic lyrics but overall happy, sweet tune. 7. (2:07) Puget Sound - Plucking guitar, more sweet nostalgic lyrics and soft, sweeping lyrics. 8. (2:03) Wise Eyes - Upbeat track with really nice melody and simple lyrics. Definitely an album standout. 9. (3:53) Oh Home - More of the folk side of the album. Slow tune with accordion and nice harmonies towards the end of the track. 10. (3:47) Strange Love - Slow acoustic track with low backing cello. Nice ghostly male backup towards end, as well as sparse heavy drum beats. 11. (3:39) Hold My Breath (Bonus Track) - Simple guitar lyrics, with more sweet lyrics, cello, and a light echoing effect that makes this track especially heartwarming. | ||
