Formed in Brooklyn in 1998, The Essex Green released four albums between 1999 and 2006. They became one of the few bands from the Northeast to be associated with the groundbreaking Elephant 6 Collective. Their unique blend of harmony-infused pop music culminated in the 2006 release of 'Cannibal Sea'. Their return is 'Hardly Electronic', a music mapping of the trio's personal journeys over the past decade. Fans will recognize The Essex Green's signature sound in this work of wax: stacks of harmonies, upbeat melodies telling melancholy tales, layers of keys and sparkling Telecasters.
Also available: HARDLY ELECTRONIC (LP+Dwn.).

POLVO - SIBERIAAn obvious point of comparison would be to 'Today's Active Lifestyles', released -perhaps not coincidentally- exactly 20 years ago. Where that album thrived on a nervous, coiled energy, 'Siberia' feels more surefooted, more poised and controlled. LP with download. |
