On 2008's WORDS & MUSIC, his first full-length outing for the Verve Forecast label, British singer/pianist Matt Hales (aka Aqualung) returns to spare, melodic form after `07's more challenging, electro-tinged MEMORY MAN. As on his breakthrough, STRANGE & BEAUTIFUL, Hales largely relies on his fragile, plaintive voice and gentle piano-led arrangements to carry his songs, which include the swooning "On My Knees" and the aching-yet-playful "When I Finally Get My Own Place." Hales also offers up a wonderfully melancholy version of Paul Simon's "Slip-Sliding Away," a rendition that bears such a signature Aqualung stamp that it's hard to remember that it's a cover tune. An album that will certainly rally most wayward fans, WORDS & MUSIC reveals that Aqualung remains a vital and accessible alt-pop artist.
Aqualung: Ben Hales (vocals, guitar, guitars, pedal steel guitar, bass instrument, percussion); Daniel Tuite (vocals, ukulele, trombone, musical saw); Kerry Frampton (vocals); Uncle Poo (guitar, bass instrument); David Price (violin, vibraphone, drums, bongos); Matt Hales.
Arranger: Matt Hales.

| | Voxtrot Mothers, Sisters, Daughters & Wives CD (2006) Extended Play
Words & Music CD music
 $8.25  
On their second CD EP, the Austin-based five-piece band Voxtrot take the 1980s sounds of U.K. bands like the Smiths, the Beautiful South, and Aztec Camera, and pair them with subtly psychedelic influences in an exuberant blend of 21st century chic and pop savvy.
With one foot in the library and the other on the dancefloor, Voxtrot combine classic 60's pop (think Love and Left Banke) with the heady, subversive sounds of 80's Britain and still come out ahead of their time. Originally conceived as an outlet for ...
| | Sufjan Stevens Avalanche: Outtakes & Extras From The Illinois Album CD (2006)
Words & Music music CDs
$12.19 
Primarily recorded in late 2005/early '06, THE AVALANCHE serves as a companion piece to Sufjan Stevens's lauded ILLINOIS, and shares the brightly melodic chamber-pop sound of that earlier release. On this 21-track offering, the Brooklyn-based indie-rock hero revisits his lilting "Chicago" on three different occasions, most notably an acoustic version that showcases Stevens's folk leanings. The gentle-voiced performer also nods to Prairie State luminaries on the woodwind-laced "Adlai Stevenson" and the delicate "Saul Bellow," a track that strongly recalls Stevens's esteemed peer Sam Beam (aka Iron & Wine). Since he has focused on Illinois for two full-length records, it seems unlikely that Stevens will reach his once-stated goal ...
| | Panda Bear Person Pitch CD (2007)
Words & Music songs
$11.35  
On 2007's PERSONAL PITCH, Animal Collective's Panda Bear (aka Noah Lennox) ambles out on his own once again with an album that includes a number of tracks from his 2005-07 singles and EPs. Influenced in part by married bliss, new fatherhood, and a move to Lisbon, Portugal, this bright, buoyant album was recorded largely with samplers, creating a highly textured sound that cements Lennox's status as the Brian Wilson of the freak-folk set. (In fact, his vocal similarities to Wilson are remarkable, as evinced on the percussive opener ...

Chase Thornburg drums and sings while Jordan Elsberry sings and plays both keyboards and laptop to deliver original pop that is fresh, catchy and complex.THE READER: (Jesse D. Stanek)"Shiver Shiver offers something different... tight musicianship... Soulless Sex Appeal harkens back to everything right about early Bowie and his Glam compatriots... the album has a vague familiarity, a penetrating sense you may have felt these songs before, followed by a damn sure realization that you haven't."The Omaha City Weekly: (MarQ Manner)"One of the bands ...
