a little bit of everything

Artist:
I would like to speak, breifly, about The Velvet Teen. It was only about a year ago that I heard the song "Naked Girl" in the background of some party, and to be honest I thought a girl was singing. I interupted the conversation I was having in order to finish the song, and by the time the last note was played I was undeniably hooked. I went by a local record shop and picked up "Elysium", their 2004 release. My jaw nearly dropped at the sheer difference in sounds. They had apparently abandoned their guitars in favor of keyboards, but it only seemed to excentuate their driven sound more. Admitedly, I do tire of Velvet Teen from time to time and retreat to my Ryan Adams and Elliott Smith records, but if your looking for a pleasant change of pace: Velvet Teen is it.
