Still - The Distance |
When we find a lost gem from a few years back, a release totally ignored or just forgotten about and then hooks up with us to yield a little bit of enlightenment to the pop masses. Such is the case here, surely. Still blend ever so gracefully free flowing guitar-based melodies that richochet and bounce warmly all over the place. Fans of soft, pitch perfect, knee-weakening vocals will eat up lead vocalist Wade Biery`s dynamically sweet take on his finely crafted songs. The sound is commerical, radio ready power pop that has an ever so vague prog bent in the vein of Tears For Fears late 80`s work(when they were obsessed with sounding like the Beatles), but, more generally, they hit the vibe of The Outfield without their schmaltz. But the band this most reminds me of his David and David`s "Welcome To The Boomtown" with lots more buzzy guitars than that album. Even Kevin Gilbert/Toy Matinee and PRR, as well. Deft arrangements and outstanding sense of popsmithing, make this Extremely Highly Recommended for the ages.
