The Lumineers - The Lumineers

The debut album well full-length album is a total winner from the folk rock indie Lumineers. The band have in little time made their peers sound like amateurs. You have Mumford & Sons and Of Mice & Men which both failed to meet expectations with their current albums. Then the excellent debut of Phil Phillips and The Lumineers that fill that void left by those previous bands.

This album sounds spectacular as well, the music is present and bright and effortless with a breeze I wasn't expecting to find so delightful. Songs like "Classy Girls", "Dead Sea" and "Charlie Boy" are slices of priceless music. The band just seem to be in another dimension when it comes to composition and performance on these tracks.

The honesty and emotion that are communicated are a breath of fresh air. There is no compromise to sound modern at this moment. The band just play good music well as if you were watching them in your living-room jamming and it was that perfect night where you've had just the right amount of single malt scotch that puts that once in a blue moon rosy glow on your cheeks with feint smell of jasmine coming through the screen door on a warm spring breeze.

This album begins as a I'll check it out list CD to this deserves to be a part of my CD music collection.
