Editorial Reviews

Eagerly anticipated new album from distinguished Australian outfit The Guild League. Formed as a 16 member collaborative side project by The Lucksmiths front man Tali White, The Guild League released the jaunty single "Jet-Set…Go!" in 2001 and the wonderful debut album "Private Transport" the following year. Since then, the band has condensed its line-up and geographical focus. Described as "twelve songs about turning points, trust and the sky" the new album is the culmination of a fertile period of songwriting between White and guitarist Rodrigo Pintos-Lopez. Often performing as a trio with cellist Cressida Griffith, the Guild League has built a loyal following. Musically, the intricate guitar and rich cello shape the "Inner North" sound. Around this rides White's rhythm guitar and galloping piano, the exemplary work of drummer-about-town Marty Brown (Art of Fighting), and bursts of brass from Guild League guru/engineer Craig Pilkington (The Killjoys). As always, Tali wraps his distinctive voice around words that warm and chill in equal measure. His lyrics shift like the Melbourne weather, from the sunny sensuality of ‘Citronella’ and ‘Shirtless Sky’ and the twilight optimism of ‘Animals’ to the pre-dawn loneliness of ‘Time Please Gents’ and the bittersweet saturation of ‘Falling Ovation’ and ‘The Storm.’ Having gelled as a band, The Guild League has produced a self assured and cohesive second album. "Inner North" is unhurried, wryly humorous, proudly diverse and humbly beautiful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Band, Great Music, November 10, 2005
This review is from: Inner North (Audio CD)
My favourite little secret - you have to check out this Australian band. Headed up by that guy from the Lucksmiths, the Guild League is the greatest thing to happen to the acoustic guitar.

Not very technical, just beautiful little pop gems in every track. With lyrics like "you and I collied like atoms/with every new unclear reaction" (The Guild League - Scientists). They're almost like a happy Iron and Wine.

If you like Jack Johnson, G.Love...or any bands that use the acoustic guitar as their main instrument, you'll love the Guild League.

I don't know how I missed out on them for so long, and I'm so happy to have found them. Quick! Make the Guild League your new little secret too.

5.0 out of 5 stars How are these guys NOT more popular??, December 30, 2005

This review is from: Inner North (Audio CD)
I have to agree with the previous post... I'm astounded that this album isn't getting airplay anywhere other than KEXP. Thankfully, being in Seattle, that is how I came across Guild League. I only heard half of the first track "Animals" and immediately knew I had to get the CD. I still think its the best track on the CD, but the rest of the album isn't too far behind. Everybody I've let borrow this CD ends up listening to it for a few days straight at least!

Do yourself a favor and pick this one up... for $16 its a steal... my local CD shop wanted $32 for this same disc!
