5.0 out of 5 stars
Addictive atmospheric beauty,
By
This review is from: Five Roses (Audio CD)
I caught "Have You Seen In Your Dreams" on XM Verge a couple months ago, and wrote down title and artist with ! indicating download the entire album. Turns out that is not even close to the best song on it. "Fortune" is one of the most addictive tunes I've heard in quite a while; the perfectly executed guitar fuzz on this song is reminiscent of Neutral Milk Hotel. While all the Brian Wilson comparisons are valid, Graham Van Pelt has created an atmosphere here that takes me to a place I haven't visited since MBV's Loveless. Not that Miracle Fortress is shoegaze at all...it just has that hypnotic quality, not unlike "Silver" by Jesu. There's not a lemon on this disc, and to call it Indie Pop or Chamber Pop, I think is doing it a great disservice; it's simply more ambitious than that. You just have to experience it. I'd suggest downloading "Fortune," "Have You Seen In Your Dreams," "Next Train," & "Blasphemy" if you just want a taste. I highly recommend this disk; everyone I've turned onto it has been floored.

Solid Album!,
By RJ "rjmusic" (rjmusic) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Five Roses (MP3 Download)
I downloaded this album over a year ago, and I never really got the chance to listen to it. Agreed with one of the listeners below, it's defiantly a sleeper album. I wound up listening to this after coming home, and I really liked it. The mood to the album is pretty cool. They mix in great sounds and vocals. This band reminds alot of The Shins, in the way that they mix in the heavier sound with the cool laid back vocals. This band is defiantly one whose done their homework on how to produce great music. It also reminds alot of the new pornographers, which is also another awesome band. If you love any of these bands then you should buy this it's a really good.

This is a wonderful album that has slipped under the radar for a lot of people, but offers so much beautiful music and even after a couple of years is an album I listen to often.
