Title: Retro Hybrid
Product review: The Stills. What can be said? Like Kurt, i think many are far too quick to put them into the Interpol category. Yes, the retroactive New Wave vibe is definitely there (with excellent bass lines, and artificial as well as lo-fi/loose drum lines), but these guys have built a far superior guitar foundation. With reverberated, off time, and often times puzzling with major/minor combinations, we see just how talented these guys are. Would it be too far even to say that these guys could even be compared with Doves "The Last Broadcast" or even New Order? i'll leave it to you. but none the less, some highlight tracks that slip through many ears are: "Animals and Insects" as well as "Love and Death" both, quality songs in their own right. Pick this album up, open your mind to a new hybrid, and let it grow on you through multiple listenings. You will not be dissapointed.
