Release Notes:
--------
Sometimes when youre listening to albums, when done right, it's the most simple
ones which hit you and standout the most. When lead singer Eef Barzelay decided
to go it alone and release a solo record, we all thought the days of Clem Snide
were long gone, so it was a great pleasure to receive the new 'Snide release.
I should start out by saying, this album is a return to form, from start to
finish 'Hungry Bird' is packed full of tracks which can quite easily be
described as soul food. There's so many elements that form the album, it's
moving, warm, wry and has a great wit as well as featuring many tracks which
have a great poetic overtone.
Their sixth studio album is a little quieter than the groups earlier work, but
the loudness they substitute with sublime sounds and Barzelay's weary vocals
which are just beautiful. Hungry Bird is certainly a grown-up album, but full of
melody and great song writing. As indie-rock bands go, there aren't many that
will do a better job for anyone over the age of 30 than Clem Snide.
