For its second full-length outing, 2008's WALK IT OFF, the lauded Minneapolis-based indie-rock ensemble Tapes `n Tapes enlisted the help of prolific producer Dave Fridmann, who has also worked with the fellow Minnesotan act Low. Rather than going for an ornate and elaborate sophomore album, the group opted to keep things lean and mean, largely sticking to its edgy guitar-driven sound. While Josh Grier still sings in a Frank Black/David Byrne yelp, Tapes' restless alt-rock aesthetic is intriguingly fluid, masterfully picking up on nuances from numerous 1980s/'90s artists, yet never seeming derivative. Highlights include the urgently funky "Hang Them All" and the sinister "Demon Apple," a track that could have fit seamlessly on Echo & the Bunnymen's PORCUPINE.

商品の紹介

Rolling Stone (p.60) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Tapes 'n Tapes hew to tradition, conjuring the Huskers on 'Le Ruse,' a tirade on betrayal, with guitars and cymbals swarming like late-summer mosquitoes." Spin (p.102) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The tunes on their second album are tighter, the lyrics smarter, and the performances far more dynamic and aggressive..." Alternative Press (p.135) - 4.5 stars out of 5 -- "Tapes 'N Tapes shake off the sophomore syndrome, exhibiting a refined, catchy rock 'n' roll menagerie that is leaps and bounds over their 2006 debut, THE LOON." Magnet (p.117) - "WALK IT OFF's divergent high-water marks, are exemplary of the two tricks the group pulls off best: hopeless wistfulness and end-of-the-rope hysteria." Q (Magazine) (p.139) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Josh Grier's voice is more sneering than before and Dave Fridman's production harder..." Mojo (Publisher) (p.106) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "The track 'George Michael' offsets Pavement-style guitar throttling with horns and sad electric piano....['Anvil' is] a small hours elegy in the best alt American tradition." Clash (Magazine) (p.108) - "[T]hey've created an album that is both original and fascinating on their own terms. An independent triumph once again."
Rovi

アークティック・モンキーズに続く〈MySpace〉発の新人という触れ込みで話題をさらった彼らが、1年8か月ぶりの新作を発表。〈ペイヴメントmeetsベック〉と評されたサウンドはさらに雑食性を増し、ライヴをそのまま詰め込んだようなダイナミズムも見事ゲット。肩肘張らないラフなアート志向とインディー精神も新鮮だ。プロデューサーは、MGMTなどでイイ仕事を連発しているデイヴ・フリッドマン!
