Hmmmm. So I had a fresh listen to Rainbro tonight. It's far more balanced vocally/instrumentally than I'd remembered. Not sure if I just had the wrong impression about it being vocal heavy, or if I'm confusing this album with something else. Or maybe I was thinking that tone-wise the vocals seem a bit "samey" over the course of the album, which it does to me a bit, but not really in a bad way.
Anyhoo... holy freaking crap what an awesome album. This one's definitely been a grower for me, and hearing it tonight really cemented it in my mind. To me, this is totally Capital P Proggy, but doesn't sound like any of the big 6.437, or whatever. Lots of amazing instrumental stuff here, both independently and backing the vocals, which say what you will about the "tone," this woman can sing and it's quite impressive. Well, I was impressed, anyway.
So, now I'm really looking forward to the new one.
