Album description

Pondlife Fiasco is quite dark but some of the tracks have an positive upside. Drums are a lot rockier than the previous  Heifervescent albums and there's a bit more overdrive on tracks such as Deep Sea Diver. All the tracks have prominent melodies and are led my shimmering guitars, strings and subtle hints of brass and flutes.

Opening the album, "When the stars fall from grace" is heavily laden with jangly guitars over acoustics. The song's about a hapless guy who can't do anything right for his lover. The more he tries, the more desparate he looks, the more desparate he looks, the less she feels for him. He goes away where he can't do any more damage, but still feels he can't do any good for anyone.

The 90's called. They're wondering why their revolutionary artist didn't show up back then.

All jokes aside, brilliant music. The sound quality is exceptional, the beats lure you in, the melody keeps you there every step of the way. It was enough to inspire me as an amateur to really push and write music.

If you listen to nothing else on Jamendo, listen to this album. Start to finish. No joke.

When I listened to Deep Sea Diver it reminded me of Into the Ocean by Blue October. It gives a sense of depression but in an upbeat way. The style of music between the two is very similar but in their own unique way.

Nice ! A straightforward pop feel..enjoyable.

well... I could have sworn that I'd already written a comment about this album before. It so happens that I've been listening to the instrumental version for the last couple of hours and came to point that I decided listen to the vocals... and not only there wasn't a review as I felt close to like listening to the album for the first time. Ain't it strange... and it sure felt superb. It's indeed a fantastic album. Something quite well balanced in between pop and rock and sounding great, with a crafted and well oriented personality, enough to demarcate graciously from possible influences and style similarities. The vocals are indeed primordial for that identification and the album is really very pleasant, as despite some shadowing, compensates through some quite clever and kind of unwilled melodic structures.

Unavoidable and even essential.

Love the melodic arrangements - something ethereal about most of the songs here. Name of band - please shorten. This band and The Windy City are current favourites on Jamendo

reflecting styles of inter decade Brit pop - nicely crafted, catchy lyrics and fun

Man! This is incredible stuff! I can't say enough good about "Heifervescent" and "Pond Life" is no exception. Another excellent offering from Andy Doran and Co. Check out "When Stars Fall From Grace" along with a full track review on my first online radio show here: http://spencerwire.blogspot.com/2011/03/spencerwire-radio-first-edition.html
