Artist: Bearhug Album: Bill, Dance, Shiner Reviewed 10/30'12 by Rex Genre: Alternative/Indie Rock, Lo-fi RIYL: Yuck, Dinosaur Jr., Pavement, The Meeting Places, Broken Social Scene, Wilco, Real Estate Australian band; for people who like lo-fi, they’ll be a perfect new addition to your favourite bands list. AllTracksPlayable FCC clean *1. Over the Hill(3.41)- unique(weird) intro atmosphere, upbeat, Stephen Malkmus-like male vocal, Dinosaur Jr.-ish tone, rollicking ,classic indie rock track *2. Shiner(3.57)- haunted, afternoon stroll, freewheeling, idle, catchy riffs, swoon 3. Angeline(3.00)- Sweet!, post-teenage uncertainty *4. Cinema West(3.28)- unforced, relaxed, pieces put it all together, smooth 5. When I Shake(5.04)- vocals and music skip down the road together, closely connected; gentle, soft, walls of effects appear in the middle, and then back to delicate atmosphere *6. Cherry Red(5.07)- slow, lonesome, reminiscent, slow/soothing-tempo, (sort of Thom Yorke/Chris Martin vocal?), delicate-simplicity, heavy building distortion near the end *7. Be Fine(3.22)- twinkling guitar riffs and breathy vocals; lonely, West Coast derived guitar line 8. Home(1.33)- begins with a distorted clutter pasted straight from the opening bar of Pavement’s ‘Silence Kit’ , overdrived guitar, jangling Strat *9. Cold Stream(6.47)- a beautiful dream, enchanting night, optimistic, lazy romance, lethargic | ||
