MUSIC: What I’m listening to…

Posted by Amy Steele in Music on April 24, 2010

MGMT, Congratulations
–no new indie band will ever replace my beloved Death Cab for Cutie but this is a solid indie band with infectious songs and lyrics overflowing with attitude

She and Him, Vol. 2
–reviewed this a while ago. it’s really a throwback to the 50s and 60s and is so sunny that however bad a mood you’re in, you’ll feel at least 10% happier

Goldfrapp, Headfirst
–adore the breathy vocals with trance-beats & alt-hip-hop arrangements

The Radio Dept., Clinging to a Scheme
–ombines intriguing compositions and hypnotic vocals for an engulfing, atmospheric feeling

Goldfrapp, MGMT, She and Him

MUSIC REVIEW: She and Him, Vol. 2

Posted by Amy Steele in Music on March 29, 2010

She and Him: Vol. 2 is such a throwback to the doo-wop 50s and 60s—it reminds me of the Brill Building days and the film Grace of My Heart.

Zooey Deschanel, indie film darling/ singer and newlywed to Death Cab for Cutie’s Ben Gibbard, sings lusciously and boldly on this one. The entire volume is sunny, bubbly and filled with sunshine and happiness. It doesn’t matter what Zooey sings. M. Ward contributes funky riffs and charged percussion to exude even more pop and pizazz.

Vol. 1 is introspective and soft, while Vol. 2 is its complete opposite. That is what makes the collaboration called She and Him so fantastic– the ability to experiment and exhibit so many different styles.

BUY Volume Two
