The Corner Laughers “Ultraviolet Garden”
November 8, 2009This album reminds me of a Whopper with no mayonnaise. Finally, a sandwich with all the individual ingredients that make for a delicious sandwich with none of the crap that will cause me an untimely death. The thing is, nobody actually likes the taste of mayonnaise, but they put up with it because of it’s caulking nature, apparently. And this band is in need of some serious caulk.
I know nothing about The Corner Laughers, but if this is their first effort, then it’s quite wonderful, really. All the tracks are a little different, and they all try different things. The Britpop angle of “The Commonest Manifesto” is amazing. And the lush, Lush-like sound of “Stonewords” is another winner. And similar to all the other condiments of a Whopper (lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, ketchup), this band is full of exotic instruments, including ukuleles, glockenspiels, accordions and meow!
The classic piano of “Half a Mile” transforms Karla Kane’s voice into Beth Sorrentino’s. What this also does, unfortunately is make the guitar seem unnecessary, but that’s nobody’s fault. At this point, however, there is now lettuce all over the floor of your car.
“Dark Horse” is another track that puts it all together fairly well. The male backing vocals complement the sad love story that seems to be spelled out, not that I can ever figure out the lyrics in anything. “Thunderbird” has a bit more mainstream appeal. My neck is sore from agreeing so much.
