内容紹介
Los Angeles trio The Radar Bros. return with The Fallen Leaf Pages, their fourth full length release and first since 2002's And The Surrounding Mountains. For the past ten years, The Radar Bros. have delivered beautifully crafted sparse desert pop calling to mind influences as varied as Pink Floyd, The Byrds and fellow Californians, The Beach Boys. The Fallen Leaf Pages is thirteen songs of gorgeously lush, vaguely melancholic beauty recorded over the past two years at songwriter Jim Putnam's own Phase III studio. With bassist Senon Williams and drummer Steve Goodfriend, Putnam's compositions have grown into organic living entities on which these "brothers" perform as one being.
Amazonレビュー
Most rock and roll bands have one particular sound, and they spend their careers trying either to refine it or run away from it (often losing themselves--what made them interesting--in the process). The Radar Bros. fall firmly in the former camp; theyre like the painter that works in the same style and with the same palette and using the same imagery for years on end. Warbly, lushly multi-tracked vocals sing lullaby lyrics of death and despair and heartbreak and the ironies inherent in the postmodern condition. Melodic, minor-keyed guitar lines snake in and out of slow-going, pleasant, Pink-Floyd-meets-Crazy-Horse tunes, while layers of strings and keyboards accompany the whole shebang sweetly, and slowly. The Radar Bros. have perfected a certain kind of moody, lay on your back and dream the world away kind of music, and its hard to fault them for not changing a gosh-darn thing on this, their fourth album. --Mike McGonigal
