The Landscape Verses
April 16, 2006 - Tagged as: Music
Fairly recently, my friend Chris' band Kincaide released their first full length album titled The Landscape Verses. I have been listening to it a lot and it definitely holds up to many listens.
The album is a bit over 45 minutes. A pretty good length considering that there isn't much dicking around on The Landscape Verses.
The track listing:
- The Landscape is Consistently Flat
- Angels and Archetypes
- Sweet Anodyne
- The Devouring
- Something Survived
- Ayahuasquero
- Diamonds
- The Business of Subtle Distress
- Maps for the Blind
- Bad News Blues and the Twenty-Five Jive
I would say that the strongest tracks are Sweet Anodyne, The Devouring, Something Survived. I guess that makes the album a little top heavy in my opinon, but most albums are. Now that I think about it, I don't know of any CD that has the best tracks packed into the second half. The other 8 songs that I didn't mention in my top 3 are all good as well.
To summarize, The Landscape Verses is a great release. Highly recommended.
