4.0 out of 5 stars
A pretty good electronic-indie rock album which manages to be a little different - you'll be satisfied with it - 4.5 stars
The Capes' "Hello" follows other similar bands like Bloc Party and Franz Ferdinand, but they somehow manage to be noticably different. It's the same style, but The Capes' electronic-influenced post-punk/indie rock definitely gives them a unique and different sound (it's not an AMAZING new sound, but it's certainly unique). Like the two bands I just mentioned, they...

This review is from: Hello (Audio CD)
The Capes' "Hello" follows other similar bands like Bloc Party and Franz Ferdinand, but they somehow manage to be noticably different. It's the same style, but The Capes' electronic-influenced post-punk/indie rock definitely gives them a unique and different sound (it's not an AMAZING new sound, but it's certainly unique). Like the two bands I just mentioned, they certainly know how to create a fun hook. The singer is actually pretty good here, but he tends to verge on unlikableness and yet calm down when you're almost about to dislike him. He's not great, but he gets the job done (I have no idea who to compare him with, though). The lyrics are actually relatively interesting as they're mostly stories. They aren't the greatest stories ever written, but they're at least fun to listen to on top of the catchy instrumentation. Musically, the production is relatively crisp and clear, and all the songs have a hook of some sort. It's not the greatest album in the world (I give it "4.5" because every song is good and the band sounds pretty different than most other ones out there today), but if you're looking for something to keep you entertained until the next Bloc Party or Franz Ferdinand album comes out, "Hello" should do you just fine. Highly recommended! Highlights include: the entire album!

ADC Metrica 'BL' U know who?, February 9, 2006
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Hello (Audio CD)
Absolutely fantastic. I have seen them in London UK a couple of times. Great gigs, even for first timers. Always noticably better than the supporting acts. Good, mature and clever sound. As above, the album only has good songs, there are no fillers. Buy it today! Go and see them tomorrow! You will not be disappointed.
