CD Reviews

Organic meets Synthetic for one hell of a conversation . . .
Dante Golio | Weston, FL United States | 02/06/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Music of the Earlies' quality must be heard to be believed. You can read an endless amount of reviews, but, nothing will prepare you for this experience.



Debut album, THESE WERE THE EARLIES, displayed full brilliance, but, it is now clear that the band was capable of even more.



Somehow, the new offering is even greater than the first record! Both can lay claim to "BEST HEADPHONE" album of all time.



THE ENEMY CHORUS brings the listener to a dense land where an army of synths buzzes in the face of bassoons, cellos, pedal steel, sitars, flutes and a top-notch brass ensemble! An antique hurdy-gurdy is even thrown in during a late album track. The crisp guitar and piano arrangements glide while real kits pound alongside programmed beats



The production quality and vocals match the elegance of all the instruments. If over the top, majestic psychedelia interests you, and you've listened to THE SOFT BULLETIN 1000 times, buying this record could make your year."
Modern Orchestral Psychedelic Rock
A. Buckley | New England, USA | 06/12/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album reminds me of what would happen if you mixed Pink Floyd with more orchestral sounding bands such as the Arcade Fire and perhaps a more modern sounding ELO. Several of the songs mix the sounds of synths and keyboards with horns nicely. The first track "No Love In Your Heart" starts off with a few seconds of violins and then builds up into a swirling, chaotic, layered wall of mesmerizing sound. It seems designed to grab your attention in almost the same way that the first track of Dark Side of the Moon does with the ever loudening heartbeat and other noises.



There are also lots of little weird noises in the background and unexpected instruments to keep things interesting. The sounds of old typewriters, tv channel changing, odd distortion, tv static and echoey vocals are scattered across the album.



It's melodic and also rocks. A fun and interesting listen. If you enjoy rock bands that go beyond the standard instruments of drums, bass and guitar, you should get this album."
