Myspace keeps fucking people's music accounts up, and telling people they're from America when they're not. Besides, that accent won’t fool anyone!
Mellow-yellows Well Wisher are seriously beautiful. Leaning to the indie side a lot more, and being a very melodic and consonant band, the term “indiemo” which may or may not have ever been used is completely relevant right now. I saw the term on Last FM somewhere and doubted its practicality anyway.
This EP contains four tracks of seriously melodic, mellowed-out but very driving beauty, that lingers upon itself in a really nice way. While maybe there aren’t any stand-out tracks, each track is consistent in style and approach, and none ruin the flow or the “listening experience” if you will. And there’s a side of them that seems like they don’t take themselves too seriously, which is always humbling.
I don’t want to call this “nice.” It sounds wimpy to describe a record that way. But it is; it’s very nice. It’s down-to-earth but its quite profound too. Nice!
Rating: 7.5/10
