Release Notes:
German young pop project BOY may surprise potential listeners not
only with its name, which is quite original for a female duo, but
also with the latest creation, LP æMutual FriendsÆ. At the
beginning the album bewitches with its lightness and simplicity,
yet further itÆs getting clear that thereÆs nothing more than
that. You canÆt count on breathtaking melodies, thought-provoking
lyrics or at least, impressive arrangements. Well, yes, I know
itÆs pop music, but even such music can be really interesting and
deep. Here we deal with plain stories of everyday life wrapped in
a bit monotonous music that makes you get bored almost after
listening to the first half of the album or even earlier. Of
course, the songs have their moments, mostly thanks to the vocals
pleasant to the ear, however the voice gradually lulls although
such tracks as æLittle NumbersÆ, æOh BoyÆ, æSkinÆ and æSilver
StreetsÆ will wake you up from time to time in order to immerse
into a tranquil drowse again. In general I donÆt want to say, that
the release is all bad, itÆs just for those who enjoy such kind of
music and donÆt demand too much.
