Indie rock with male vocals similar to J Mascis. The music is like a lot of Eels stuff, so in the end it’s the most ’90s band ever that you’ve never heard of. You even get some good female backing vocals on “Weigh It Down.”
If you want something that’s not as slow, “Up the Hill” is a good option. The melody is intentionally flat, and it kind of sounds like The Fray. And piano fans will appreciate the ballad, “Flames.”
In the end, the songs all sound very similar, but the kids do love it. If you can’t get laid playing this CD, you have bigger problems in your life.
