19.04.2024-ORIELLES Silver Dollar Moment (Heavenly,2018)

 

INDIE POP

     The Orielles are good at making music sound human - there's something very alive about vocalist Esme Dee Hand-Halford's slightly wobbly, English-accented singing style, while the guitar sound on 'Sunflower Seeds' has more feeling than some bands' entire back catalogues. A couple of things about 'Silver Dollar Moment' are hard to understand:
   a-what they're actually singing about (most of the time)
   b-why they decided to open the album with 'Mango', which sounds like a bad Britpop song.
     Mostly, though, this album is a masterclass in how to produce guitar music that feels anything but futile: by making it specific, strange and superior to much of what's come before.
