Amore Del Tropico

Quite the amalgam of all things dark and twangy and lush and sexy, dramatic, with strange pop elements. I hear strains of Nick Cave and Tindersticks, yet unlike most derivitive bands of that ilk these guys have a genuinely different take and feel, quite original. Pianos, strange noises, no overbearing vocals. Loungy in places, swingy in most, twangy in others. Pop songs emerge later in the spirit of Bowie and such. I am having true difficulty trying to find the right words to describe this: probably a first for my verbose self. So that in itself says a lot. Cool as all hell, all songs good.
