Walkmen [EP]

walkmen [ep]

Editorial Reviews
The New Yorker
"The group produces a sound that has at once an enigmatic, funereal quality and a pop shimmer."

Product Description
Five former members of the late, lamented Jonathan Fire*Eater and their gone-too-soon siblings The Recoys have joined forces as the Walkmen. Deconstructed rock arrangements, spirals of white guitar noise, ambient Wurlitzer distortion, fiery trance-inducing rhythms, haunting vocals: this is the new thing. Beautiful arrangements and beautiful songs.

5 out of 5 stars Never Mind the Walkmen..........2005-02-16

5 out of 5 stars The best EP I've ever found.......2002-05-11

This is, hands-down, the finest extended play record I've ever heard. Every track is an excersise in original, dark, atoal songwriting. Walter's Organ and Paul's tremeloed guitar mesh over Matt and Tom's rhythm. Great drumming, spare, haunting, heavy bass. Finest tracks are one, three and four, but the others are just about as excellent. This short-lived but unparalleled band released several stellar eps, but the Dreamworks album and this are all that are left on the market. Do not pass this release by.

This CD is fun and addictive. Tremble Under Boom Lights is one of the best songs ever recorded. How I wish that there were more than 5 songs on this CD. The songs will be circling in your head for days, and you'll have a smile on your face the whole while.

5 out of 5 stars Essential........1998-07-18

An absolutely stunning 5 song disc. "The Search For Cherry Red" and "Give Me Daughters" are destined to be classic. Walter Martin's organ and Stewart Lupton's vocals are the best 1-2 combo in music today. This EP is perfect.
