In your face jangle

Eichleay\'s album is a foot tapping, pop extravaganza. Backing is rich, articulate, crisp and well executed. John\'s voice is earnest and never becomes stale.
Crank it on a Sunday and forget about the impending Monday.

Terrific. Like variety of styles and moods. Way to go on debut album.

Not such a Poor Excuse
author: Christian Huant
A very accomplished debut from this artist. A soothing, melodic voice whose softness rather contrasts with some of the harder / rock arrangements on display. The musicianship is excellent. But it's the songs that stand out, melodic, catchy, immediate. My favourites are 'Tree Song' (a jolly number, a joyful celebration of... hippyness?) and the beautiful and heartfelt 'Poor Excuse'. 'Friends and Family' is a great opener too. Generally very pleasant throughout. Recommended!
