ROBOTS & ELECTRONIC BRAINS

Six Feet Over, Another day like today TAPE

With guitars strapped on, 6 ft. over sound much like a lot of US "alternative pop" (their words) bands: punchy in the right places, jangly when required, verse/chorus and so on. But when it's just piano and Kim Koppel's voice, a whole new intensity is generated. Take "Ceasefire" for example. About Northern Ireland, its stark, simple and sometime amelodic tune contrasts with the powerful and emotive vocal to great effect. Likewise the bouncing depression of the piano-led instrumental "Playing with Chafe" heavily outscores the guitar songs. My advice? More piano please.
