The
Bye Bye Blackbirds
Take
Out The Poison
Self-Released
The
follow-up to 2013’s "We Need The Rain" is more shimmering power
pop/college rock from this long-running Oakland band.
Every
track has something to recommend it, but three songs that stand out without
diminishing the rest are noted here: the anthemic “Let Your Hair Fall Down” and
“Baby We’re Fine,” and the Elliott Smith-like “I Meant To Write.” All three can
be the gateway to the album, and while I’ve already reviewed it separately,
“Duet” is another standout track, with a very sweet video.
The
wait for this album was worth it for music this great, so do your ears a favor.
