Review by SFP Music Critic Frank Kim
 |
This album from Land of Malls (LOM) is a solid effort with versatile sounds that
combine folk, pop-rock, acoustic, and even some country The texture of the
music is simple but yet dynamic. |
Interesting and good use of violins
and string arrangements with keyboard arrangements thrown in there. The
range of songs reminded me of various pop rock acts from recent past
like Traveling Wilburys- with the male leads vocals reminiscent of Roy
Orbison meets Chris Isaac. The female lead vocals were melodic and sung
nicely- reminiscent of the Cowboys Junkies and The Sundays frontwoman
Harriet Wheeler. That's saying alot I think. Overall, nice melodies
and interesting song selection and titles including Land Of Malls, Bridge of the Gods, Another Blind Dinner Date and Lesbian with the Bouffant Hair. I'd like to see them live to
get a better feel for the band. On disc- it's a good effort.
