Echoing the striking contrast of Chutes Too Narrow opener "Kissing the Lipless", Wincing 's lead track, "Sleeping Lessons", builds from sparse, muffled arpeggios to full-on rock'n'roll.

While slick and robust production doesn't flatter much of the record, it works well as a counterpoint to the song's quiet initial moments. Single "Phantom Limb" is pure, lush pop, boasting a chorus that plays like the aural equivalent of that optical illusion where a staircase appears to ascend indefinitely. With the exception of the excellent "Red Rabbits", the more noticeable aesthetic departures on Wincing don't fare as well.

Still, the album finishes strong: "Girl Sailor" surpasses "Phantom Limb" in lyrics and overall structure, making it a likely contender for the album's second single, and "A Comet Appears" is beautifully orchestrated, if not terribly memorable, making it an appropriate closer for a record that often emphasizes texture over form.

The band are from Albuquerque, New Mexico. Like most people, I came across them after they featured heavily in Zach Braff's JD from 'Scrubs' beautiful indie movie 'Garden State' which he also wrote and directed.

The album is sweet, sincere and uplifting without ever grating. Prepare to become obsessed by the song 'Phantom Limb' which is surely the song of the year. Newer Post Older Post Home. Subscribe to: Post Comments Atom.
