Search - Popface :: Eleven Pieces of a Broken Heart

2009 release from the Norwegian Indie/Shoegaze outfit. For many years, the band have perfected the balance between loud and quiet, between cascading walls of electric guitars and the gentle whisper of an acoustic guitar. On Eleven Pieces Of A Broken Heart, the band has taken a step in a new direction. Instead of searching for the musical climaxes, the band is on a quest for harmony. The Indie feeling is still very much there, and you can feel something building under the beautifully constructed Pop songs, but the wild guitars have been pretty much turned down and the band comes forward as an harmonic unity, building up rhythms and patterns underneath the Pop structures. Fans of The Appleseed Cast should take note.
