专辑简介
As a duo, Corcovado's previous effort was a home-recorded, self-titled EP release. On Arrows, Ghosts and Doors, Corcovado hit the studio and re-developed their sound together as a five-piece band that touches on indie rock, shoegaze, dream rock, and jangle pop. The album roars to a start, taking a huge cue from Seely. Bass and drums drive along against the picked, distorted Sonic Youth-style guitars, while the dreamy, meditative vocals and bells of Tina Louise and Rebecca van der Leest float above the layers. The highlight, "Small Girls Are Trouble," conjures up the spirit of Blonde Redhead and Deerhoof. Haunting vocals again are pitched against the drive of bass and drums, while guitars move at a creepy jangle and rev up for the choruses. At times, it seems as if Corcovado wander off of the mark that they set up for themselves. They have wonderful ideas for epic tracks, but back off just when you are wanting more. Like most dreamy guitar-driven bands, such as Sonic Youth, Seely, or Blonde Redhead, Corcovado are at their best when all of the independent elements are playing off one another. Arrows, Ghosts and Doors from Corcovado is a decent debut release as a full band and one can only expect to hear great things in the future from this outfit. ~ David Serra, All Music Guide
