| | Sanford Arms Too Loud For The Snowman CD Sanford Arms Discography of CDs
Downbeat soundscapes, minimal but jangley guitar work, and breathy vocals characterize this debut album from Sanford Arms. Frontman Ben London sits back and reflects on modernist discomfort, allowing for some cautionary feedback on some of the album's more aggressive, if not overtly passionate, tracks like "Red Vine" and "Permanent Wires." On most of the songs he adds atmospheric keyboards that give the feel of a melancholic coalition between resign and confrontation. The album's stronger tracks, like "Science and Industry," "Permanent Wires," and "Brass Ring" (which boasts harmonic overtones by Stephanie Wicker), sinuate through pop melodies that have been delicately seasoned with emocore sensibilities and field recordings by sound engineer Tucker Martine (Bill Frisell and Vinicious Cantuaria). While the tracks can at times seem a bit repetitive, London can't be faulted for his careful chord construction and knack for the understated hook. ~ Travis Drageset

Thirteen years after his highly lauded debut and four since his last offering, Hayden released IN FIELD & TOWN, a record that confidently reestablished the Canadian in the indie singer-songwriter vanguard. While Hayden has always brazenly copped Neil Young, this record--his sixth--follows in the mellow rustic tradition of Young's HARVEST and HARVEST MOON, while sonically expanding on their templates. Oddly placed synth lines, treated guitars, ...

A Different Drum is proud to present this unique collaborative project featuring original short stories and accompanying theme songs. As a fan of both electronic pop music (synthpop) and science fiction, we felt that the two pop art forms would be natural partners. Synthpop is a genre which has often been viewed as "futuristic" because its musical foundation is based in the creative use of technology. The synthpop composer uses the latest computer hardware, software, samplers, and other electronic musical devices to ...
