Straight foward bar/indie rock with a relationship/melancholy side. Alt.-easy listening with the slightest hint of twang. Very earnest relationship lyrics. Beware the treacle. Bass, drums, piano, acoustic guitar, electric guitar. FCC clean. Picks 1,10,6.
**1-(3:46) gentle mid. opens strummed acoustic gui. and nice counterpoint melody in elec. guitar and keyboard. Picks up. Straight foward earnest indie rock. This one works.
2-(3:27) Very slow 3/4. A relationship (gone bad) song. Last 5 sec. silence.
3-(3:19) Mid. "Pleasant" song about being love.
4-(3:38) gentle rolling mid/fast alt-country. brushed drums. Ewww. Ends low.
5-(5:59) Piano, brushed drums backing cheesy vox. "Deep violin solo". Last minute crescendos to anthemic post-rock. Drops back to piano for the end.
*6-(2:39) Mid/fast. Harmonica at beg.
7-(3:34) Slow. Open country guitar sounds. Doesn't really go anywhere imho.
8-(4:01) Mid. Ends high.
9-(3:32) a-capella beg. Repeats warm, victorious 6/8 melody for most of song and builds. ends low.
*10-(10:37) Very slow, stripped sound, with more twang in the guitars and some vox bursts. Builds to an anthem. Fades out with toy sounds at (-5:45). Secret track at (-4:15). Toy sounds start again. Slow recitative over slow guitar strums. Ends with mid/fast rock, wurzliter, handclaps.
