WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Annuals

Posted over 3 years ago
Digging this album today. Check out my favorite tracks:"Carry Around":http://itstoolong.com/musica/02%20Carry%20around.mp3 <<< catchy chorus"Brother":http://www.acefu.com/MP3s/brother.mp3 <<< rocks out when you least expect it to"Dry Clothes":http://www.acefu.com/MP3s/annuals-blearyeyed.mp3 <<< interesting song structure.There's a lot more going on here than I initially heard. I love songs that reveal themselves in layers. If you can deal with the bizarro yelping and screaming in the background of some of the songs, you'll come to appreciate how it adds to the character of the overall sound. Enjoy!Oh and thanks to lemontwist for hooking me up :)

  1. Manos says You already know how I feel about this album. It's definitely in my 2006 top 5. "I love songs that reveal themselves in layers." That's a great way to describe their music, me thinks.

  5. Viva La Britt says Hmm, I think I'm starting to understand your musical palate better. Am I hearing some Arcade Fire-ness here? The music is upbeat without being ridiculous (a rare occurence these days), and "Carry Around" is yet another tune that fits the bill of "song that sounds all happy and stuff but the lyrics aren't so much".

  6. Manos says If this is Arcade Fire-ish, I'll need to check them out.

  7. tybees says Oh man if you haven't heard the Arcade Fire yet I highly recommend ??Funeral??. Annuals do have a similar sound, but both bands are still quite distinctive. And silly me, I haven't really paid attention to the lyrics of "Carry Around" yet, I've been to busy groovin'.

  8. ix3johnbender says Oh and PS, if you decide to listen to "This Armistice", even if you don't like it, wait it out. The end is the best part.
