SETTING SUN: "Fantasurreal" -- Drums, old-style guitar chord strumming. Folksy, surfy rock. Some horns and viloins. Rather tame, whispery vocals.
Faves: 6, 2, 4, 5, 10. -- Sunshine, September 2011
** 1) Driving (2:33) - Drums; old upbeat surf-style rock. Perky.
*** 2) Make You Feel (2:52) - Plucky guitar. Plodding beat. Horns!
** 3) Sacrifice (3:53) - Somewhat dull vocals. Repetitive guitar chords. Drums.
*** 4) Into The Wire (6:06) -- Haunting guitar. Violin. Male and female harmonies.
*** 5) Into the Wire (2:47) - Upbeat, surfy drums. Happy pop sound.
**** 6) One Time Around (3:20) - Moody guitar. Melodic vocals. Horns.
** 7) I Love Mellotrons (2:24) - Ploddy drum beats. Strummed guitar. Classical and Middle Eastern Violin. Essentially instrumental.
** 8) The Tree (3:34) - Slow tempo. Male/female harmonies. "Don't get carried away." Ploddish.
** 9) Handsome Bride (3:03) - Immediate male vocals. Storytelling. Folksy rock. Kind of cool beat, with violin. Subtle Beatles "Eleanor Rigby" sound,
*** 10) The Sympathetic Ceo (5:07) - Clinky, Casio beatz, "Sittin' on top of the world, nowhere to look but down . . ." Good male vocals, Upbeat little groove.
