Release Notes:
After humble beginnings with a Yamaha keyboard in her bedroom (the
place to launch a pop career these days, by all accounts), the tail end
of 2009 finds æthe good naturedÆ (aka 18-year-old Sarah McIntosh)
releasing her second EP. Still with only the aforementioned old
keyboard to provide the electric pulse for her affecting, sometimes
dreamy musings on life and loss, McIntosh has created a sound thatÆs
stripped down and honest; less funky and polished than Ladyhawke, but
warmer than Ladytron and more leftfield than Lily Allen. Opener æI
PrayÆ finds McIntosh pushing out a hook large enough to snare a shark;
just try and resist that uplifting chorus. Go on, I dare you. Next,
æYour Body Is A MachineÆ ushers in moody, apprehensive organ-esque
keys; elsewhere the beats polymorph in style from cheap electro to
drumænÆ bass. McIntoshÆs strength is in writing songs that are simple
and accessible enough to lure the listener in at first glance, but are
also strong enough to hold up to repeat listenings. Throughout,
McIntosh pulls off vocals that are emotional, even forlorn, without
withering away into glumness or irritating the ear. One to watch this
year; hereÆs hoping she never bins the keyboard.
