Free Music Review: I'll Tell You What It's Worth
Hit: 4 Stars
I think this album for some reason reminds me a lot of The Dears. If you were to take one look at the album cover, you'd think Lightspeed Champion is a novelty act. But you'd be wrong. There's a hell of a lot of depth and pathos to this guy's music. It is, at times, rather strong stuff.
It was still in my CD player until yesterday by the way. I only just bought Tinderstick's new album. But I assure you, this album's worth the money.
Falling Off the Lavender Bridge Poster
Stunning 2008 debut album from London based Dev Hynes, AKA Lightspeed Champion. Recorded in Omaha by Saddle Creek's resident producer, Mike Mogis, the album is a semi-acoustic Country-Rock Folk-Pop gem that bathes in Americana . Layered with ambitious instrumentation, from strings, to cello, oboe, pedal steel, clarinet and flute, it's a gentler more contemplative sound; light years away from the Noise-Punk Metal of Dev's previous act, Test Icicles. Backed by an informal band of multi-instrumentalists Nate Walcott and Mike Mogis, the Faint's drummer Clark Baechle, and guest vocalist Emmy The Great - plus moonlighting members of Cursive and Tilly And The Wall - Dev was able to furnish his gently humorous, open-hearted songs with an unaffected warmth.
