Free Music Review: Best with lowered expectations
Hit: 4 Stars
Debut for BSS is essentially an album of instrumentals, spacious and ambient and explorative, with words appearing at small and sporadic intervals (and even then, it can be difficult to hear/understand). As such, it's a very strong candidate for moody background music, floating effortlessly and, well, feeling good lost. As the songs move from one to the next, it's easy to tell that the band was definitely trying for a complete album, but a lack of crowning moments mars its success. It rarely feels as alive as it should be. And since it serves as background music, it wastes the intimacy of close inspection, which it may crave but doesn't deserve.
Early moments shine brightest: the low-key swirl of "Passport Radio," the rise and fall of the guitars on "Guilty Cubicles." But an interlude like "Prison Province" adds nothing and cries out its lack of necessity. Long workouts like "Blues For Uncle Gibb" and "Last Place" have mixed results; the latter, especially, drones on for so long that it starts becoming boring long before it fades out. In the end, musical monotony brings this down to a mostly solid release and little more. It would be another two years before the band would be truly noticed and actually earn their endless accolades. But for a first effort, it scores enough to warrant a purchase.
Best cuts: "Love and Mathematics," "Passport Radio," "Guilty Cubicles," "Mossbraker," "Cranley's Gonna Make It," "I Slept With the Bonhomme At the CBC," "Stomach Song"
