The boys from the disbanded Anniversary have returned, and it sounds like they've been listening to lots of nashville skyline. They've fully embraced the
alt-country influences that they only hinted at in their previous
formation. They've ditched the synth keyboards in favor of harmonica and
weepy pedal-steel. Expect acoustic guitar and simple piano. Some pleasant
tracks, but nothing too exciting. If you like alt-country, or if you were
into the Anniversary, you'll probably want to check this out. Track 2 is
the closest thing to a standout.
1- a light breezy tune with mostly acoustic guitar and steel guitar,
scratchy voice
*2- very reminiscent of Neil Young in guitar riff and voice in chorus, more
rockish than most the cd, which is a good thing
3- sort of a wistful song with aching steel guitar
*4- starts with harmonica, piano, and sparse drums; nice harmonies with fem
backup voice
5- more upbeat, stones-like music, drags on near end, but female backup
provides some soul to keep it alive
*- pleasant guitar strumming
7- in the first half country snarl in voice sounds too forced and bugs,
which is too bad because second half is quite nice. FCC (shit)
8- just acoustic picking and voice, quite pleasant track
9- most similar to anniversary. like his return to former singing style
10- sort of a yawn. ends with cheesy group-singing of cliché chorus
