Artist:
Synopsis: An
extremely important album. It will
definitely be on several “Best of ‘08” lists, and rightly so. From the opening track to the end, this album
drips of brilliance, energy and power. Produced by Arcade Fire’s “Funeral” producer. Amazing.
Recommended Tracks:
1. “All In It” – An exciting and powerful
introduction to the album. Love it.
*2. “Lights Out for Darker Skies” – Truly
brilliant and overwhelming. Awe-striking ending.
*4. “Waving Flags” – The first single off
the album, and a brilliant song. Must add.
8. “The Great Skua” – Powerful instrumental
a la KTSW favorite Explosions in the Sky.
*9. “Atom” – Awesome song. Great lyrics. Amazing energy. Great changes.
