(3 Customer Reviews)
The anticipation surrounding ROOM NOISES, Eisley's first full-length album, didn't come as a surprise to those who had heard the band's 2003 EPs LAUGHING CITY and MARVELOUS THINGS. These early releases not only landed the group plenty of magazine coverage, but got them personally invited to tour with Coldplay. This unusually quick success might seem odd given the hype around the band's make-up--a twentysomething quintet of four siblings and a family friend. Thankfully, rather than ending up as a prefabricated act, this Texas ensemble instead delved into intelligently written twee-pop with an ethereal twist that brings up names like the Sundays, Mazzy Star, and Rilo Kiley.
The gorgeous, intertwining vocals of sisters Sherri and Stacy DuPree, offer plenty of bright, shiny moments throughout this debut, ranging from the yearning "My Lovely" and the jangly, up-tempo rocker "Plenty of Paper" to the harmony-soaked, strolling "Trolley Wood" and the noirish "Telescope Eyes." Most impressive is the pop-perfect nugget "Golly Sandra," a whimsical number wrapped in lazy pedal-steel guitar, tambourines, and that stellar confluence of vocals. All ROOM NOISES should sound as beautiful.

Room Noises - anything but noise Eisley's debut album is simply fantastic--Room Noises demonstrates the band's ability to combine beautiful vocals with poetic lyrics and unconventional yet gorgeous tunes. The album's mellow feel puts the listener in a totally different world; an almost fantasy-like trance. The beautiful album art adds to the effect as well. If you like bands like Radiohead, Kent, or From Monument to Masses, pick up this (very reasonably priced) album NOW! Submitted by katthedrivein (LA county, CA, USA) Was This Review Helpful?

Purchase Room Noises CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | American Music Club Everclear CD (1991)
Room Noises
$11.65 EVERCLEAR, AMC's finest hour and one the '90s' most powerful albums, is simultaneously lush and searing, heartache and despair borne out in elegant arrangements that combine fragile prettiness and soul-baring howls of pain. Multi-instrumentalist Bruce Kaphan rose to the occasion of his production debut. The canyons of reverb on the instruments are strangely appropriate, highlighting the almost decadent, tragically beautiful feel of the songs. Keyboards, pedal steel, ...
| | Yardbirds Ultimate! CDs (2001)
Room Noises
$21.09 Recorded between 1963 and 1968. Includes liner notes and song annotations by Cub Koda.
With two discs, 52 songs and a 52-page book, this is a wonderful roller coaster ride through the vitally important Yardbirds catalog. Not only did guitarists Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page emerge from their ranks, but the group spearheaded a unique meld of blues and ferocious rock & roll. Formed in the era of British blues bands, the Yardbirds released a series of singles that gave them Top 40 clout. Though this hastened the exit of Clapton, who decried their abandonment of a purer strain of blues, it created some incendiary, forward-looking ...

SINATRA IN HOLLYWOOD was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards For Best Album Notes.
Frank Sinatra's studio recordings have been collected in comprehensive box sets issued by the various record labels for which he recorded (RCA Victor [when he was a singer in Tommy Dorsey's orchestra], Columbia, Capitol, and Reprise) and there have also been multi-disc collections of his V-Disc recordings and radio shows. That leaves his work in television and film, a more challenging prospect for compilation (at least, legally) since so many different companies are involved. Yet Reprise has managed to do the job here for the singer's movie performances, gathering together soundtrack recordings made for films released by Paramount, MGM, Columbia, RKO, Universal, Warner Bros., United Artists, and 20th Century Fox between 1940 and 1964. The chronological sequencing provides a portrait of Sinatra's musical development that parallels his studio recordings during the same period. He first turned up on screen in the Dorsey band in Las Vegas Nights, released in 1941, not acting, but merely singing the previous year's breakthrough hit "I'll Never Smile Again," albeit under a dialogue scene by the film's principals. After he went solo, he began making tentative appearances in films like Higher and Higher that traded on his bobbysoxer appeal. With 1945's Anchors Aweigh, he graduated to big-budget movie musical stardom at MGM, but by the end of the decade was making forgettable pictures for RKO. At the end of the third disc, one begins to hear the mature ...
