REVIEWS

author: CD Baby
Moody and melodic, these pop gems grab you with strong vocals, intelligent lyrics and rich instrumental arrangements. Nostalgic sounding music for the 20-something generation. Influences include Big Star, REM, and Freedy Johnston. Music for remembering Summer while drinking coffee on the front porch in Winter.

Sublime album.
author: Philippe Kalck
Downpilot nous livre ici un album d'une intense finesse et d'une rare mélodie; de "Downspring" à "Been Delayed" tout ces morceaux nous envoûtent et nous portent sur un nuage tant ces mélodies sont raffinées et belles. Leur second album est plus brut mais le son Downpilot est toujours présent. Ces albums doivent être soigneusement écoutés et à garder dans sa collection de raretés, comme Penfold, le dernier The Figgs, Bayside ou Jettie; tous ces groupes sont différents musicalement mais leurs musiciens savent exprimer et faire passer leurs mélodies en vous. Hautement recommandé !!!

Stunning release!!!
author: Giulio "The Cab"
It's the first DOWNPILOT cd I've ever bought (thanx to CDBABY!) and I hardly love these guys!!! Much better than many other "emblazoned" bands...Amazing class and great taste for recording!!! I can't wait for the full lenght... Buy this one if you love stuff starting from R.E.M. ending to Modest Mouse and DCFC! Cheers from Italy!

Selections from 'thrive in a short season' hint at a growing sophistication and a heartfelt, homespun delivery reminiscent of great college-rock bands of yore like the db's and the Feelies.
