Consisting of twin cellos and guitars, Wooden Instrument Extremists Andrew McCubbin and the Hope Addicts’ third album, Blue is out now.
..
“Stunning records like this don’t come along everyday. It’s hard to describe music as sensuously beautiful as this; harder still to even believe it actually exists”" Inpress Magazine
..
"McCubbin has the most beautiful voice on the indie scene" ABC
..
"an evocative and romantic set of songs”
Rolling Stone
..
“…remarkable. Each piece is beautifully understated and realised with only judicious embellishment although lead track ‘Blue’ is the standout – a kind of antipodean crush of gravity and scale, taut and fraught, a breakdown in the desert, beyond belief.”
Beat Magazine
..
“…you’d be easily convinced he was actually some hidden treasure from London’s rich musical backdrop - such is the understated murmur of McCubbin’s voice and eloquent orchestration of instruments.” 4.5/5 stars Time Out Magazine
..
“The songs on Blue are timeless gems” MX Magazine
..
“the sonic equivalent of endless longing”
Editor’s review Download.com (USA)
..
“McCubbin channels the pitch-black romanticism and solemn vocal style of both Leonard Cohen and the late, often great Triffid, David McComb”.
Sydney Morning Herald
..
As a writer McCubbin ranges with effortless grace through Nick Drake like folk sounds with almost pop European aesthetics full of dramatic tidal rushes of emotive instrumentation.
..
They’ve toured extensively throughout Australia and New Zealand as well as the UK and Europe.
..
The band will be heading back to the UK and Europe in July / August 2009
.. Andrew McCubbin and the Hope Addicts can be contacted via email on addicts@1-am.org
