Rob Crow and Armistead B. Smith IV continue to create complex indie pop with smart, subtle structures on Pinback's Offcell. Vocal tracks harmonize, electronics punctuate, guitars punch clean, key changes shift quickly, and syncopated drums all swirl in the thick instrumentation, giving Offcell many dimensions. The members of Pinback write their own material that covers different areas, including the straight-ahead pop of "Microtonic Wave," angular prog rock of "B," and guitar-driven loopy Folk Implosion sound of the title track. "Victorious D" shows off the angular post-rock smarts of Pinback. Driving bass pumps along, while keys change and the keyboards accent sentimental vocals. "Grey Machine" is a catchy, repetitive gem that rounds out Offcell. This track has a different feel from the rest of the record, offering big drums against layers of vocals, keyboards, guitars, and programming, sounding like a mellow Built to Spill. Each of the tracks has interesting electric outro melodies that are thrown in for fun; some lead into the next track, while others leave you wondering where that melody could have landed. Possibly the future of Pinback? Perhaps. But Pinback doesn't stray too far from its previous work; all of the tunes are enjoyable and never get boring. If you are familiar with Pinback, Offcell is good, but doesn't break new ground. ~ David Serra

Offcell songs
$11.89  
This Montreal ensemble's fiery debut is marked by surging guitars, soulful strings, driving drums, brilliant bass lines, and the quavering vocals of married couple Win Butler and Regine Chassagne. The group's song structures careen through a vast territory of musical and personal history, with lyrics warm with memories of childhood neighborhoods and deceased loved ones, resulting in an alternating current of joy and sadness.
Favorably compared to the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, and Broken Social Scene, the Arcade Fire's sound seems to come from a lifetime of listening to the Cure, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, and many ...

Offcell album

| | Decemberists Picaresque CD (2005)
Offcell CD music
$14.29
The Decemberists' third full-length release takes the fanciful lyrical subjects and defiantly non-rock musical tendencies of CASTAWAYS AND CUT-OUTS and HER MAJESTY THE DECEMBERISTS and infuses them with the more muscular and electric sound of the 2003 mini-concept album, THE TAIN. The combination provides singer/songwriter Colin Meloy and crew with their first true masterpiece, an album that not only fulfills, but exceeds, the promise of their earlier records.
Meloy's pet obsessions with historical romance and the sea get their due, culminating in the nearly nine-minute suite "The Mariner's Revenge Song," but he also examines more real-world topics in the Morrissey-like ...
| | Sarah McLachlan Freedom Sessions CD (1995)
Offcell music CDs
$12.79
THE FREEDOM SESSIONS features alternate versions of songs from FUMBLING TOWARDS ECSTASY. The CD version includes a bonus multimedia track that, when played on a computer, shows more than 30 minutes of video footage, photographs, audio- and video-clips from earlier albums, and interviews. The rest of the album can be played on a computer or a standard CD player.
The seeds of THE FREEDOM SESSIONS grew out of Sarah McLachlan's highly-acclaimed FUMBLING TOWARDS ECSTASY, the idea behind which was to combine the folky acoustic tendencies of her songwriting with a more produced air. THE FREEDOM SESSIONS features many of the same songs, but in their initial, unadorned stages, reworked with a more earthy feel that returns to the essence of where the material came from.
THE FREEDOM SESSIONS is a collection of evocative folk-rock songs, backed by simple percussion, acoustic guitar and piano, which also spotlights McLachlan's elegant voice. Sweeping and soaring through these soft-yet-vivid songs, she evokes the styles of fellow Canadian, Joni Mitchell. While the material ...

(ilike ) Mr. Nuclear - "holy crap i never knew i liked this stuff! Mr Nuclear is my best friend, now." (facebook ) Mr. Nuclear - "Excellent track, Very original - Wow, right off the bat this is definitely one of the most original tracks Ive heard. I find this to be very catchy, with many unique sounds meshing together very well, and the vocoder works well also. The bass sound fits very well also, envelope filter perfectly programmed (unless its a loop)The arrangement is very nice, the breaks come at the right time and are lead into and out very skillfully. The short length serves this song well as to not overdo a good thing. This artist needs a contract." Reviewed by: RobEarly from Washington, Dc (garageband )Drama Scene - "Very impressed! - Less than a minute into this piece, I was already impressed. This is well-composed, well-arranged and well-mixed. You clearly know what you're doing here, and are quite talented. The sounds also show the amount of work put into creating them. The mood is both uplifting and suspensful, and the melody does a good job of supporting that. This song is not only super well-done, but the kind of music I really like. Fantastic, smashing job!Reviewed by: audiodef from North Potomac, Dc (garageband )Drama Scene - "Interesting sounds - Good intro well produced and mixed interesting sounds good choice of lead synth sound , I also like the vocal backing. Good swelling bassline. I like this track and it would grab my interest if i heard it on a compilation. The drums sounds sound original, are they? overall an original sounding track, I like it. Grungy and industrial, atmosheric. A well produced interesting piece of music. would be interested in hearing more from this group/producer. Good arangement too keeps me interested."
