Dressed up for the letdown rar

This album really is a wonderful glimpse of where both Joy Electric and Starflyer 59 came from. Jason Baker. Haddad returns with cinematic soundscapes that include introspective folk, post-grunge, and indie-pop influences. Live In New York City by Tex Crick. Australian artist Tex Crick takes a low-key, 70s singer-songwriter approach to his latest collection of songs.

Vanity by Starflyer Vanity is both a continuation of the introspective songwriting Jason has been doing for the last decade and a musical evolution, continuing to expand his sonic palette in unique directions in no small part to TW Walsh's excellent contributions.

This is the most forward looking album Starflyer has put out in years, and it's a refreshing take on their classic melancholia. Keep up the great work Mr Martin!

Swift, but you're much too fat, and could I persuade you just to wear a cap? Swift's most appealing traits remain his hopeless romanticism and canny knack for catchy tunes, and Letdown surrounds these tendencies with appropriately lush production.

Swift's generous tenor expands to match the growling bass and swirling atmospherics that suddenly appear, as if the curtain behind his small stage suddenly fell and revealed an elaborate backdrop with a dozen more musicians. Letdown closes quietly, though, with "The Opening Band", a slight gospel-folk number, within which Swift's multitracked voices hover in the mix like apparitions.

He takes solace in an undisguised allegory of John the Baptist, who served as the opening act for his "cousin Christ. As a closing act for an album full of dramatic despair and longing, it's fitting, if not also a bit troubling. It slowly eases a despair that now seems deeper, gradually softening and losing volume until gently fading into silence.
