Comments: I only heard of this group recently, but they've made a big impression on me, haha. they're an interesting blend of guitar and piano, and it works really, really well. they consist of two vocalists, Bob Morris, whose voice reminds me of a mixture of Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy) and Alex Kapranos (Franz Ferdinand), and Greta Salpeter, who has a wonderfully delicate, beautiful voice. We Intertwined is a fun song, nice and upbeat and a great way to open the album. A Dark Congregation somehow manages to be bright and dark at the same time, probably the work of the piano, lol, the chorus is beautiful. Sweet Tangerine is nice and fun, with clear, sharp piano and some really nice guitar work. Lions Roar feels very Spanish, with a nice combination of deceptively simple guitar plucking, trumpets and maracas. very fun. Lighthouse is soft and quiet and very, very beautiful. something about the lyrics really strikes me. Don't Wake Me Up was the first song that I heard by them, and I fell in love immediately. Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump (who has one of my favorite voices. ever.) features in the bridge, and he and Greta combine to make a wonderful, wonderful piece. I love the piano in this one. Where We Went Wrong isn't my favorite song on the album, but it's nice overall, slow and calm, and I swear to god there's some banjo in the background. oO; pretty cool, though, haha. Magnolia is a nice song. Greta sounds great, and I like the piano and guitar. Wine Red is fun, with lots of references to the Garden of Eden, and Bob sounds awesome. Out Through the Curtain is probably my least favorite song on the album, a little too slow for my tastes (at least compared to the rest), and it seems a little anticlimactic. You Are the Moon, though, is just-- heartbreakingly gorgeous. ;; soft and quiet and Greta's voice is beautiful, and I love the lyrics, so much. perfect way to end a great CD.
