Album Description It's refreshing to find a band that's not terribly worried about being the next big thing. Over the five years of their existence, Voxtrot have released fewer than twenty songs spread across two hard to find 7-inch singles and three EPs. And it's on the strength of those literate, memorable songs, plus a series of increasingly tight and vibrant live shows, that they've built a devoted and passionate following. The twelve songs on this record are a powerful statement of intent: louder, harder, a little more complex, a more confident Voxtrot. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsThe Debut Album to Own! Jasper Mcworthy | USA | 05/22/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "These guys are amazing. I just picked this up based on a friend's recommendation and holy wow. By strategically avoiding all the pitfalls of what a first album can fall into, they do it masterfully. They also avoid the trends quite well, but delving into a very honed power pop rock sound that elevates your energy no matter what kind of mood you're in. However I get sad listening to it, because so much of the lyrics apply to situations going on in my life. But that's the reason I love it. It emotes me. It makes me feel the same thing. They're doing it with a meloncholy grace that in my opinion rivals the best Interpol song. They hail from Austin, Texas where if you don't know so many great and unique groups have come out of, here's a small list in case you're curious.... American Analog Set At the Drive In I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness Explosions in the Sky Spoon Bedhead The Black Angels Murder City Devils This is one of those albums that you will get through from start to finish and not skip a single track. It's unbelievably how perfected their sound is, that they've been working on it for a while and finally found where they belong on the soundscope. Get this if you enjoy Superdrag, Nada Surf or some of the best early nineties Brit Rock. Also I tend to never review anything that's less than five stars so if you read my reviews, you'll know this one's a winner." The best album I've bought in a long time B. Hunt | UK | 07/03/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "Fantastic indie pop. Some of the songs are instantly catching (like Firecracker, which I played almost non-stop for a day), and all the others without exception get better and better. Thoroughly recommended." The talent is here.... L. Ewing | Fort Worth, Texas | 06/21/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "This has the ability to go mainstream, but hopefully it won't. For their first full-length album (released on the same record label that brings us the outstanding 'The National') Voxtrot doesn't disappoint. Hailing from Austin, they bring simple beautiful melodies, vocals, and (some) piano. A sound that might be compared to the likes of Death Cab, if thats your bag.
Notable tracks: Firecracker, Ghost, and Introduction" |
