Produced by Howard Redekopp (Tegan and Sara, An Horse, New Pornographers), Threads forms a sprawling sonic endeavor that ... Read more in Amazon's Now, Now Store

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this album! November 15, 2012
By mattC
Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase
I buy a lot of music, and this is the first review I've ever written, so forgive me if my format is unusual. I had to write a review because I love this album! Seriously, I'd like to court this album for about a year before asking for her father's blessing. He would give it, gladly. I would ask for her hand over a fancy dinner, she would be appropriately surprised and gladly agree. It would be a quiet, beautiful ceremony, just family. Our honeymoon would be at Disneyland. We would have 2 children, a boy and a girl. He would become an astronaut, she the president. They would bear us many beautiful grandchildren. We would be faithful to each other our whole lives (old fashioned, I know). We would die of old age, within 10 days of each other. The funeral would be lovely and our ashes scattered over the Pacific. Lovely, beautiful, spectacular, just like this album. Buy it!

I buy a lot of music but have never written a review, when I saw that this only had one review I was was shocked. Since buying Threads, I have listened to it over 50 times and it gets better with each listen. For me, that's the true test of good music. It flows very well as a full album and I found that is the best way to listen to it. But for you kids out there that need a standout hit, check out Wolf, Dead Oaks, Prehistoric, and Thread. However, my favorite songs on the album are But I Do and School Friends. This album is so good from start to finish that it is by far my favorite album of 2012 (at this point it's not even close). Do yourself a huge favor, buy this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars If Paramore started listening to Mew December 7, 2012
Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase
If Paramore began listening to Mew (e.g. "And the Glass Handed Kites"), and decided to take a big step toward making real ART, it might sound something like this. The songs themselves are great, but what really sets it apart is the overal SOUND of the album. Rather than sticking to a pile of guitars and such, the mix is filled with enough interesting sounds (not the least of which is the singer's phenomenal voice) to keep you guessing, and to make you forget that, at heart, these are pretty much pop songs. The mix shows not only a command of subtlety, but of RESTRAINT, as most often the tried-and-true wall of generic guitar tones is eschewed in favor of good old, forgotten SPACE. One guitar at a time is not uncommon (as is no guitar at all), and most are executed with a great degree of tonal know-how (one exception is "Oh. Hi.", which serves as the musical equivalent of the drawing of a lamp that is simultaneously a drawing of two faces... at 0:14 the sound of the hand sliding across strings is borderline hysterical). A guitarist that knows the value of midrange and knows that more gain does not usually equal harder-hitting! What a concept! Excellent performances all around, and a great group of songs to boot. What's not to love?
