A Good Place to Start, January 26, 2009
Bobby Burg's(member of Joan of Arc and Make Believe) Love of Everthing may seem like it'd be eclisped by Joan of Arc, but at times LoE seems as powerful if not more than JOA in the sense of a catchy pop song. Bobby's voice may be an aquired taste for some though. He's descrbed as boy-ish by some or toy instruments with adult themes and situations. Lyrically Burg comes up with some cool one-liners with some druggy themes, sexual, relationship, anger, and who even knows(like early Joan of Arc). Though the lyrics hardly matter with the melodies and atmospheric keyboard that seems to go beyond atmospheric as a back bone like in the two opening tracks. There's a lot of great hooks in this lo-fi pop album that reminds me of GbV a little bit.
The album has a great cohesion to it starting off with fun keyboard tunes(Hotel Parties) and the middle is more mellow experimental ballads(Possible Possibilities) to rocking at the end (I Love All You Guys fast).
