Here begins the xmas break reviews catch up! First up some love from the wonderful SoundlySounds blog for Kramies latest single, ‘Sea Otter Cottage‘, and perth’s sophomore album What’s Your Utopia? .There’s a taste below before checking out the full Kramies review here and the perth review here.
“And finally, ‘Sea Otter Cottage’. This one is a tad quieter and less vibrant than the previous entries, but no less amazing. Kramies bring the melancholy poetry hard and fast on their drooping miser ‘Sea Otter Cottage’. Every time you think the track’s about to fall, it is suddenly picked up by some new instrument, like macabre organ chords or vaudevillian guitar. Perhaps its the influence of Jason Lytle of Grandaddy fame that muddles and murkies their sound, but it comes off fantastically.” – SoundlySounds on Kramies ‘Sea Otter Cottage’
“From start to finish, the whole thing reeks of being amazingly talented. Fuck this Arcade Fire bullshit, if you want some indie music that’s tied down solidly with electronic pulses, listen to perth.” – SoundlySounds on perth’s What’s Your Utopia?
