Details: Product Description In age of records as mp3 cookie-cutter compilations, Close to Paradise is actually an ALBUM. Make no mistake, there are gems that are happy to stand on their own like "Giver" or "Drifters", but "Bright Shiny Lights" is that much more uplifting after you take the trip that is "Sleeping Beauty". Records used to do that kind of thing. They still can. There's something for everyone here, from the electro-acoustic dustbowl sound of "The Storm", to the circus-like "Weight of the World", to early Pink Floyd echoes in "Close to Paradise" and late Beatles guitar on "Man Under the Sea". Play it loud, with headphones. From the Artist On the one hand it's impossible to ignore Patrick Watson as a classic singer-songwriter; the charming young piano-player with the haunting voice. The big impact of an otherwise simple song like "The Great Escape" is a testament to the attention that Patrick's voice, delivery and sensibility command. (Just try and avoid vocal comparisons to Jeff Buckley on "Luscious Life" (inflected with just a bit of Sufjan Stevens-like orchestration), or the penetrating stripped-down gospel of "Bright Shiny Lights". But with Robbie Kuster, Mishka Stein and Simon Angell filling out the lineup and contributing songwriting, you've also got a classic four piece rock band ready to explode.
