"It is a Christianality theme, it is fictional, but no religion in the music, it is Okay, it is funny, do you need some coffee from a Christian coffee shop?"
The quickest way to describe Room Noises is to compare it to Feist or Metric - female-fronted indie pop with basic instrumentation and simple song structures. The problem is, it's not as catchy as either aforementioned artist, and there's little else to keep one interested besides a strong vocal performance from Sheri Dupree (one of four siblings and their cousin who form Eisley). Her backing band might as well be studio musicians or even pre-programmed loops, considering their contribution to the album is completely forgettable.
So basically, the only truly interesting thing associated with this Room Noises is the memes.

Room Noises is one of the best albums I own. Each track is melodic and beautiful, and even the slower songs are captivating. I can't wait for their new album to hit stores, because I will be the first one to gobble it up. 5+ stars; I wish there were more to give!
Um...on a side note...Eisley is 100% without a doubt NOT EMO music at all...
This needs to be fixed to Indie Pop.
Please.

Good review.
While Eisley are undeniably charming, they are almost too sugar-sweet. Even when the lyrics are sad (Telescope Eyes) they make it sound happier than it is. Bright Wound and Golly Sandra are the two best tracks. I actually don't like Telescope Eyes. I vaguely remember a very old 5-minute-ish piano-driven Telescope Eyes, but I think I'm the only one. Must've been a dream.
Overall, a very good album, and nice to listen to when you're down.
Their new album hits stores in august.
It's called COMBINATIONS.
