Been trying to get this release in here for sometime and finally have succeded, so hopefully the persistant work will pay dividends for Not Lamers
just l ike you! The Animators blend acoustic instruments and vocal
harmonies with electronic textures and beats, creating modern pop songs that work like short stories and reminds us most of the fabulous Willie Wisely. Like Wisely, their savvy, insightful songs are both sophisticated and accessible, both intelligent and full of heart. "4 stars.. The Animators offer a unique and inspired approach with Home By Now, evoking the Shins as filtered through Toad the Wet Sprocket`s rock ambitions, and certainly worth citing as one of the better indie pop albums of the early 2000s.. The debut record from Brooklyn-based indie rockers the Animators is an impressive one: Devon Copley and Alex Wong, though only a duo, achieve a rich, multi-layered sound that covers an impressive breadth of sonic and emotional range. At heart they are a power pop band, whimsical and a touch precious, and Home By Now marries these instincts to smart writing and pristine production."-AMG. The Animators` inventive arrangements extend the pop palette to include such unusual textures as accordion, glockenspiel and cajon. Their confident sound evokes Coldplay and Simon & Garfunkel, the Postal Service and the Police. But for all their eclecticism and depth, the Animators never fail to deliver big choruses, undeniable melodies, and sticky hooks. "the Animators combine classic and literate songwriting with intricate arrangements and melodies.. Home by Now, is as theatrical as it is delicate; lighthearted without sacrificing content. Highly recommended."-Performing Songwriter. " Correctly tagged by critics as Simon and Garfunkel with laptops, or the Police meets Crosby, Stills & Nash.. Wong and Copleys songs are like hook-heavy short stories put to music. The Animators dont sound like
anybody else. "-NewsReview. A major find, a "Grade `A`" release and, most
definitely, Extremely Highly Recommended!!
