MP3: The Second Band - The urgency of now
The Second Band of 2008 is a bit different than the one you might remember from 2006's "Your dark side is on the phone". Less members, a bit rougher around the edges. Less straight-up pop, less optimistic, more yearning, more weary. Seems appropriAte to me as the world is not as nice a place as it was two years ago. On the other hand, this also means they're sounding less unique. Do we need another Arcade Fire or Shout Out Louds? When they sound more like the former as on today's mp3 pick, I say yes. The song has drive and, as the title suggests, an urgency. Also, as with Atrap.com/mp3.php?t=640">yesterday's mp3 selection, they throw in the odd off-notes to add Atmosphere and tension. It's a clever ploy and without it, the song wouldn't be nearly as interesting despite thAt lovely drifting melody line during the verses. However, as self-assured as such tactics may be, I still get the impression thAt the band is having a bit of an identity crisis as the rest of their new album "The definite form" is anything but. They seem torn between embracing modern indierock and exploring their quiet, jazzier side which, come to think of it, kinda reminds me of The Book of Daniel the more I listen. I like this song a lot, but am not so sure it's the direction they ought to embrace.
