Music reviews of I
Music Review: No harmonica, but if you like glockenspiel...
Rating: 5 Stars
Now, upon the good advice of my new online-friend (grumpyhonky on livejournal.com), I went out this weekend and picked up the album. Boy, am I glad. Grumpy used good words like "combination of multi-instrumental indie rock...combined with a Broadway musical". How could I resist?
Upon the first skim of the cd, my impression was that it was a bit slow. I was almost prepaired to hear anti-radio/hypothermia-rock. It's not quite there. The lead vocal sounds manly, but as if he's working up a cold. Now, as I listened to the album again I came upon the song "I wish I had an evil twin". I don't know how I missed this on my first listening. This song is genius. I have finaly found a song that defines Howard Tuttleman (me) as a person. The rest of the songs were ok, being mostly very sarcastic love songs. At least I hope they were supposed to be sarcastic, or else this guy is very angry and sad. As I don't allow romance in my life (I just don't have time for it with my reviews and stuff), I can't relate to most of the album.. and "I Thought You Were My Boyfriend".
Do you ever have that time of the day when you're doing something SOMEONE is about to get mad at. It's like you're watching a movie of yourself doing stuff and there's NOTHING you can do to stop it. Yeah, if I can, I usualy blame Morris (my dog). He understands me and usualy takes one for the team because he knows everyone thinks "oh, he's just a dog" and he can't get grounded due to his diplomatic immunity in the house. This works when no one is around to witness things, and there are no other surviellence devices around. BUT, sometimes there ARE people around. This is where a duplicate Tuttleman would be very handy. I'm fascinating myself with the thought as we speak. In the song, the "evil twin" can do ANYTHING to ANYONE and no one EVER blames the singer. Yeah, it's kind of like that.
In conclusion, the album on a whole (lyrics and vocals)is alright, but the musical instruments and "I wish I had an evil twin" upgrades the entire cd to a whole new status. They do use a wide variety of instruments, but with SUCH a variety I expected to hear a little harmonica in there. I might have just missed it, so if I'm wrong please let me know. It's still better than your average motorcycle-rock. I must note, if you like glockenspiel, the Magnetic Fields offer it on whole-wheat bread with a variety of jellies. Later.
