The Silent Years, The Globe
2008 | Label: Defend Music Inc. / IODA

Sonically, the Silent Years are ready and eager to cover any and all bases. The Globe drifts effortlessly from tracks that hit hard, with exuberant electric guitar ("Climb on My Back," "The World's Worst Birthday Gift") into those that are whimsical indie-pop delights ("Pay It Back," "Out in the Wild"). And then there are the beautiful ones, like "On Our Way Home," which manage to squeeze both ends of the spectrum together into four-minute masterpieces. Josh Epstein's sliding and enchanting vocals carry listeners through this musical adventure, where a captivating surprise waits at every corner.

On your radar?

They should be. Started with these guys last album that they gave away for free as a promotion. It worked, I snatched this up as soon as it came out and it was not disappointing. Buy it.

I really like this album. During the first listen, I felt this sense of discovery, wandering into something unique and wonderful. Goes well with warm weather and windows-down driving.
