Snaggle Von Swift Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) On ‘Still Life,’ katie ellen’s latest EP release, Pyle, Tinnirella, Frelly and Hanman give a diverse snapshot of their potential as composers. In just five songs, the record hearkens to That Dog and Liz Phair with punchy melody and tasteful harmony, richly textured Camera Obscura indie, Phil Spector-esque pop ballad, and even post rock and bedroom folk. Pyle’s lyrical styling is concise, personal, emotional: “patient one, I always leave the light on. can’t get nowhere when the goings all gone.” “Still Life” begs the question of love: how do you make something so elusive sit still? How do you make it stay? Is it the case that the more you try, the more fleeting it becomes? Pyle’s answer: “true peace is hard to find. even harder to hold in your mind. you can’t make love stay. do your best to hold it in place” New song: "Lighthouse" 200 Translucent Orange 300 Lavender http://www.lauren-records.com/products/620264-katie-ellen-still-life Edited July 11, 2018 by Snaggle Von Swift MCDELTAT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
