Heavy Blinkers - The Night And I Are Still So Young |
2004 release and we are terribly excited......in a catalog of truly special and stunning releases, this is their best. Arguably Canada`s best pop band, The Heavy Blinkers have reached a new maturity with this stunning pop masterpiece. Over two years in the making and featuring a 22 piece orchestra, "The Night..." combines the nocturnal orchestrations of the Flaming Lips with 70`s era Beach Boys to create a symphonic tapestry as rich and dense as anything you`ll hear this year. "with clever use of brass, pedal steel and pristine orchestration, the Canadian quintet conjure the same blue skies as West Coast idols The Beach Boys or The Carpenters. Multi-layered vocals and parping horns give a swing to the upbeat Far As You Are, while a 24-piece choir and peaceful pedal steel bask ballads like Malmo in perpetual summer. Which isn`t to say it`s sunshine all the time: for every triumphant Bacharach horn flourish there`s sadder soft-pop relection."-MOJO. "A tour-de-force of unequalled pop excellence"-RollingStone.com. As with all their albums, they weave a sophisticated white soul, simply recorded but brimming with ingenious arrangements and complex harmonic blends. The swirling horn sections, pristine harmonies and sing-along syrupy choruses that spell nothing but guilty fun, Heavy Blinkers know no equal to their unique and captivating vision of this sort of experience. Extremely Highly Recommended!
