Details: Product description A. Borodin ~ No Cities Left Amazon.ca Somber, tormented, and uncompromising, No Cities Left, the fourth album from the English-Montreal band The Dears, marks, if not a turning point, at least a culmination in the demanding journey of Murray A. Lightburn and his cohorts. Arguably one of the most British of Canadian bands, The Dears—who have often been compared to The Smiths—manage here, like never before, to digest their countless influences to create a completely original work. Less accessible than End of a Hollywood Bedtime Story and Orchestral Pop Noir Romantique, No Cities Left is also the group’s most polished album. The cavernous voice of singer-songwriter-producer Lightburn is supported by an array of keyboards, guitars, and brass, along with expertly crafted arrangements that serve his intimate and dark songwriting well. The group fully asserts its style here: a pop-rock that is at once sophisticated and raw, powerful and romantic, violent and tender. --Pascale Millot
