I don’t
remember too much about Accents, just that I apparently liked their album prior
to this one, so take that for what it’s worth.
Deep Elm does have their entire Bandcamp catalogue available at a Name
Your Price download option though, so that’s cool because you can download
these songs even as recent as this for free if you want.
These
songs have somewhat of a radio rock feel to them, in the sense that I can hear
bits and pieces coming out from bands such as The Verve Pipe, Goo Goo Dolls, Barenaked
Ladies, Deep Blue Something and just along those lines. There is also an indie rock quality to it, as
I definitely hear some Sherwood coming out as well.
Though
it tends to be almost on the pop side- where it would fit within the radio
playlist as the aforementioned bands- the thing is that it still remains
complex, layered if you will and doesn’t have that simplicity that is generally
related to songs on the radio and pop on the whole.
This is
quite beautiful and moving post rock that brings out the likes of Live
sometimes, but I also really just like the line “Let your darkness come to me”,
and that might be the best thing about this album.
