I was visiting the website and looking over my favorite bands and some of other people's ratings for them. I type in a search for The Hush Sound and there is no result. Very shocked I made this review so that more people will find about a very talented band.
The band comes from the Decaydance label which is headed by the bassist of Fall Out Boy, Pete Wentz. Although they come from a label with many standard pop punk bands like The Academy is..., October Fall, Paramore, and Panic! At The Disco. This band is very different.
The Album begins with the song City Traffic Puzzle. My second favorite song of the album.The song brilliantly uses the piano as its driving force. The song gradually speeds up and is a very entertaining change.
Weeping Willow is the next song... usually i don't like female vocalists but her voice is pure and works well with the music they play. The song is beautifully written and the piano, lyrics, and drums work well together topped of with her voice.
Crawling Towards the Sun is the song some of you might be familiar with which is upbeat and has that Hellogoodbye feel. It is still a good catchy song.
The Artist my favorite song on the album. It is an acoustic and The Hush Sound delivers the goods. Greta the female vocalist and pianist takes the lead in this song. The song begins with the lyrics, "I know that your an artist your the hardes ones to deal with, everything that you conceal is revealed on you canvas you find all of your ugly meanings in things ive found beautiful"
The song goes on with its emotionally driven lyrics.
The album continues with songs like Momentum and Hourglass which are very well done.
As you continue through the album you realize the artistic talent of the band and how the cleverly use different tempos. Theyre is something for everyone on this album. Upbeat and happy songs, reflective emoish songs, songs on relationships, and metaphorical songs that you really have to think about to understand. I encourage everyone to get this album. Theyre next album comes out tommorow June 6,2006 Like Vines. If you buy this album we quickly realize what I am talking about.
