Olen rakastunut korviani myöten australialaiseen indie folk bändiin nimeltä Husky ja heidän debyyttialbumiinsa Forever So. Sitä ei varmasti mikään tiputa tämän vuoden parhaiden levyjen kärkiviisikosta (vaikka se julkaistiinkin Australiassa jo viime vuoden lopulla). Fleet Foxesin, Mumford and Sonsin ja Radical Facen risteytykseltä kuulostava Husky on neljän miehen bändi, johon kuuluvat Husky Gawenda (kitara, laulu), Gideon Preiss (koskettimet, laulu), Evan Tweedie (basso, laulu) ja Luke Collins (rummut).
Husky voitti Australiassa viime vuonna Triple J Unearthed -kilpailun ja pääsi soittamaan Push Over festivaalilla. Sen jälkeen Husky on lämmitellyt bändejä kuten Noah and The Whale ja The Shins. Albuminsa pojat äänittivät Gawendan takapihalla sijaitsevassa bungalowssa, jonne he hankkivat vanhoja nauhoitusvälineitä ja opettelivat äänieristämään huoneita katsomalla videoita internetistä. Albumi sai lopullisen silauksen, kun Noah Georgeson miksasi biisit House of Blues Studioilla Los Angelesissa. Lopputulos on albumi täynnä koskettavia lauluja, hienon hienoja kerroksia, kauniita harmonioita ja laukkaavia rytmejä. Tämä levy sopii täydellisesti tähän alkavaan syksyyn! Alla kolme virallista videota katsottavaksi ja koko albumi kuunneltavaksi. Parhaimmat biisit ovat ehdottomasti History's Door, Hunter ja Animals & Freaks.
I'm totally in love with the Australian indie folk band called Husky and their debut album "Forever So". It will most definetely have a place in a list of this years top five albums (although it was released at the end of last year in Australia). Husky is a four-piece band, consisting of Husky Gawenda (vocals, guitar), Gideon Preiss (keys, vocals), Evan Tweedie (bass, vocals) and Luke Collins (drums). They sound like a cross between Fleet Foxes, Mumford and Sons and Radical Face.
Husky won the Triple J Unearthed contest in 2011 and got to play at the Push Over Festival. Since then they have opened for bands such as Noah and The Whale and The Shins. The album "Forever So" was recorded in a bungalow at the back of Gawenda's house. It sure doesn't sound like the guys just got their hands on all the old recording gear they could find and watched videos about how to sound-treat rooms. But that's exactly how it was done. The final touch for the album after months of crafting songs in Australia was made in LA where the album was mixed by Noah Georgeson at the House of Blues Studios. The result is an album full of songs with a haunting quality to them, delicate layers, beautiful rich harmonies and rolling rhythms. It's the perfect album to listen to this fall! Above are three official music videos for you guys to watch the the whole album to listen. The three best ones are "History's Door", "Hunter" and "Animals & Freaks".

Oh, kiitos tästä musavinkistä. Täydellistä syksymusiikkia tosiaankin! :3
ReplyDeleteVoi, ole hyvä ^__^
DeleteTästä mä tykkään. Enemmän kuin noista muista mainitsemistasi bändeistä, joiden risteymältä tämä mielestäsi kuulostaa. :) Ihanaa, ihanaa!
