Title: Sound good? Yes. Sound original? No.
Product review: Leaves are another nice little inoffensive indie band to add to your growing collection of Radiohead, Coldplay, The Verve, Travis, Starsailor, Lowgold, Lorien, Haven, Aqualung, Doves...sure its a nice sound and "Catch" is lovely but its hardly new to the ears - the same emotions and sounds are evoked by other bands, better. In fact this CD sounds ridiculously like Doves: the lead singer sounds exactly the same as Jimi Goodwin and sometimes the songs sound like what Doves would do.If you want this kind of thing go for either Radiohead (because they are more experimental) or Coldplay (because they do the simplistic nice inoffensive ballad better than the rest). If you want something that sounds exactly like this but came first, go for Doves. If you want some really good Icelandic music go for Sigur Ros. But its hard to see many people being satisfied with this album.
