Free Music Review: Another Impressive Effort from Thomas and SLGTM
Hit: 5 Stars
I've been listening to Saturday Looks Good To Me for quite some time now, and I've always been captivated by their blend of intelligent/romantically aware lyricism with Phil Spector-ish machinations and Motown revivalism. The release of the EP's Green Mansions and Cold Colors were considerably different from their trademark sound, and while both very good, left me nervous for this album - I didn't know if I'd be able to accept it after releases like "All Your Summer Songs" and "Every Night". When I finally bought and played the CD, what I found was an album that made the transition an easy one, less drastic than the EP's and aware of the fact that old fans might be reluctant to accept experimentation, without being as reserved as this sentence might imply. Everything about this album is worthwhile, from beginning to end (In fact, the first and last tracks are probably my favorites).Free Music Review: Very Great
Hit: 5 Stars
I would say that I was skeptical at first. Someone recommended it to me and I thought "Oh Boy I hope they don't sound like Carbon Leaf." And they don't, at all, which is great. When I started listening to the first song I loved how the guitars sounded, I love how everything sounds, the production isn't the most incredible since Brian Eno maybe, but it is fantastic and sounds just the way I like it to. The first song is also so very 50's and T. Rex that I couldn't say no, and then the next song is my favorite. It is like a polished and more friendly Strokes song, reminds me of "Last Nite" with the punchy guitar. But it probably really isn't like that song. You can dance to it all the same so that is a plus. There are only two songs I don't really care for, otherwise the rest are wondeful. Some also flow very well together, like they are in the same key so you hear a guitar end it's chord, then it picks up again and goes into another song. Not so much like they are movements in a classical piece, but it is all a very smooth transition. If you are vaguely curious about this album, just get it, you won't be disappointed.
