Free Music Notes for We Have Sound
Free Music Review: Soul Coughing ressurected, only better
Hit: 5 Stars
Tom Vek has issued out an outstanding debut album, recorded mostly on an 8 track recorder in his garage, We Have Sound is an album that unveils new sounds and textures with every listen. His voice is very reminiscent of M. Doughty from Soul Coughing but the music is not as simplistic or dry. From the thrashing drums and 60's feel to the opening track "CC [You Set The Fire In Me] to the dark vibe of "The Lower The Sun" every track on this album is great. Even the quirky and odd sounding "A Little Word In Your Ear" which reminds me of Wolf Parade. "Nothing But Green Lights" is probably one of the best driving songs ever, as Vek sings "you and I are going to get ourselves out of this town in a 989 Black Mercedes Benz"
This album could best be described as Garage Electronica but it meshes so many genres so well and fluidly that it can't be placed. Its a shame this album hasn't crossed over to the mainstream in the US, because with bands like Gnarls Barkley tearing up radio, Tom Vek would fit right in.
