Sounds Like
five young men adrift in the cosmos.
The Canals:
"Recalling a combination of the unobtrusively pleasant sounds of Belle and Sebastian and the adventurous – almost nightmarish – arrangements of Os Mutantes (especially on “Margo Left in Bed”), Brown Recluse Sings proves to have the ability to stretch into a world of sound beyond conventional indie-pop."
Skatterbrain on "Night Train":
"The bright, poppy keyboards and the horns mesh perfectly, creating a nice, lush melody that, well, gets stuck in your head pretty quick."
Badminton Stamps on "Western Meadowlark":
"And for your downloading pleasure, what has no doubt been my number one song during this lazy hazy last month of summer: an effortlesss, washed-out lullaby coo from Brown Recluse Sings."
Philadelphia Freedom:
"Belle & Sebastian. The Left Banke. The Zombies. David and Bacharach. The Stone Roses. I'm reminded of all these and more when I tune in and turn on to the day-glo sounds of Brown Recluse Sings, a five piece who were recently brought to our attention by the fabulous ears and minds of Badminton Stamps. "Your favorite new band," they write. And now mine too."
