Customer Reviews
The Contrast move up to yet another peak
For those who are not familiar with their work this is a stunning fourth album by the band originally from Peterborough in the UK but who primarily work in the States. This band are difficult to categorise - Dave Reid has developed across four albums into a songwriter with real depth and his guitar playing touches many bases from beautiful 12 string chord layers to urgent stabbing rock. The songs work on several levels - musically very accessible with echoes of REM, XTC and The Pursuit of Happiness but with a lyrical depth that satisfies repeated listening. Andy Hawkins production and engineering is perfect, not too overblown but with enough depth and thought to really bring out each song especially with regard to Dave Reid's distinctive vocals. Highlights for me are 'ink' and 'mean' but there's not a filler track on this great CD
