mr. esq. Reviewed 2010-12-23 | ||
as reviewed by mr. esq. 60's pop revival/neo-folky indie pop from oxford. most of this was recorded on 8track! various locations&hundreds of instruments. really sweet&simple&really damn good. =lovely. riyl; aerial pink's haunted graffiti, pogues, billy bragg, teenage fanclub, belle&sebastion, housemartins, et al. FCC WARNING: #2 ('SHIT'.) SUGGESTIONS: ANYTRACK=GOODTRACK. BUT ESP: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11. *1. shimmery cymbals open. vox like nico. but it's a guy. a very authenntic 60's pop song, ala peter, paul&mary, dusty springfield. upbeat. lovely. *2. FCC WARNING: 'SHIT.' billy braggy/pogues, but poppier. 3. pogues&belle. *4. BEST TRACK:moving&sweet. there's violins. it's epic!(weepy) *5. belle&sebastion. it's wistful. it's a beaut. 6. it's fiddle&banjo time! chorus vox. the whole village is in on this! 7. belle (&peter, paul&mary!): nicely syncopated pop. weird noises near end. *8. ALMOST BEST TRACK: this is the rocker! it moves. like 70's brit-punk ala undertones, only ones. synths (!) 9. starts w/ underbed of fast drumming, very subtle, gits&vox ala radiohead. repetitive&building. *10. lullaby start. vox like from the emptiest space. sweet. *11. tolling bell...drums ala supremes. vox=est belle. horns. a really sweet way to end this. |
