This short Tengooz album has some
of their best English lyrics.Thats saying alot, because this Japanese band
has some good words.My favorite is Picture perfect,
which seems to be about keeping up appearances or maybe a lover with
many secrets.
Clear skies is also witty and it has a message.
Strange Chord has a reference to The 3 stooges!
This album also rocks.Strange Chord is almost to overpowering,
the instruments take you to the limit, though the vocal doesnt seem to keep up.
This work by the TenGooz displays a high standard of
intelligent lyrics and music that kees you moving.
As their homepage said,no matter what the subjet of their
song, they are grounded in groove.
The Chills is a song about loss with eerily groovy
trombone and guitar.
Innishmoore is a celtic romp with a funny travel story.
Mari mack funky rapping with more funny lyrics.
It goes on and on...
Some of the best new songs Ive heard from any band in a long time!
The first song Time flow is great! Good beat melancholly chorus
and interesting words.
The next track completely changes the mood with a exciting,driving,
party song.
The album as a whole is a really good mix of tracks.
My favorite band on Jamendo!
From the first strains of the acoustic guitar through to
the last piece with the arabic instrument and percussion,
the album was striking in its originality and general tone.
The playing is also, at a high caliber, with awesome sax and guitar,trombone, and guitar solos.i have surely never heard a song with guitar tabla and
spoken word before!The lyrics range from funny to downright scary!
I was also truck very much by the cover art.
this work is great inside and out!
Is there more?
