Release Notes:
This post debut album EP features three foraging non-album
tracks to contrast with the fuzzy, feel-good, tender and
mildly electro-zipped album gem, 'Shining Bright'. This A-side
slots together the lost, but comforting vocal lag of Rainey
Ortega with a warming Mercury Rev element. It gives feel-good
pop pickers, earnest indie impresarios and country flirters
something to hold onto. Also, those who just like a well
textured tune can meditate away.
Anyway the looping indie/country folk catchiness of Gramercy
Arms is as exposed as Danny Cipriani's ego, but the 3 new
tracks inclusive of 'Walking Around', shows an ambient
producing ability and a more forlorn vocal drag to wretch out
bewilderment and nostalgia. 'Fell Apart', brings their country
lob out of the shadows and some stirring slow clattering
strokes comfortingly the weary, but crisp male and female
vocal to and fro. Gramercy Arms are giving the impression that
their next album may focus more on slow mood creating than
feel good indie/pop. Anyone complaining?
