Search - The Race :: The Perfect Gift

The Perfect Gift weds an introverted quietude with a subversive sense of pop?new members & more seductive songs wrangle the spirit & panache of This Heat, the effulgent melodies of the Beach Boys & the unwittingly gothic heartbreak of Tim Buckley. the bright, shattered polyphonies of old have become smoothed and rounded, buffeted by new influence & old intuition. Imagine Smile-era recordings played in the woods alone rather than on the bright, populous beaches of California. But the ocean is miles away, & you can?t get there from here.
