Marshall Holland

Paper Airplane

Mystery Lawn Records

 

This very direct, clear, simple in the best sense of the word, power pop/indie rock album from Holland is a lot of fun.

 

There are relationships, romantic and otherwise, as in “When The Rain Comes,” politics, as in “Waiting For That Peace and Love,” and feminism, as in “She Buys A Dress

(To Match With Her Pink Belt)” in preparation for the woman in the song stepping out on her own.

 

Holland played all the instruments, and shows himself to be very nimble and light on his feet. So if you want something that goes down easy and yet has a lot of meaning to it, this is the album to get.
