The Soundcarriers
Wilds

 

 

60--80点相当。

平均だとギリギリ高評価に届かずという感じ。

 

 

音が汚いw

でもメロと曲はジャパニーズサイケに通じるところもあり

すごく良い。

 

汚いからよく聞こえてる部分はあれど、

もうちょっとだけ良くならないかねぇw。

 

 

After a short run of releasing near-perfect albums between 2009 and 2014, the Soundcarriers vanished. Lovers of woodsmoke-scented, deeply dreamy, and gently trippy neo-psychedelia were sadly bereft of one of their finest practitioners of that noble sound. Fortunately, the creators of the sadly underrated, and quickly canceled, series Lodge 49 were big fans of the band and convinced them to get back together to record new music for the show. The process was smooth and the results lovely enough that the group decided to make another album. 2022's Wilds is a stunning return to form that builds on the baroque psych of their previous record while dialing up the rhythmic punch and delivering a batch of their most straightforward songs to date. The rhythm section of bassist Paul Isherwood and drummer Adam Cann power the songs with skillful precision that allows Leonore Wheatley's keyboards and Dorian Conway's guitars to float like clusters of balloons drifting across an autumn sky. Add in the occasional flute, some percussion, and the hauntingly pretty vocal blend that Wheatley and Conway whip up, and it's more magic from the band. As previously mentioned, the songs are less exploratory than some previous work; this time they hit like pop songs beamed in from the rings of Saturn.

こっちのほうが音はきれいじゃんw

 

どうも1st以降くすぶっているようだが、

それ以降もなかなか良い。

 

前作

このころは、ピチカートにサンプリングされていそうな曲の傾向。
