The Canon Logic专辑介绍:Written by: SHOSH Brooklyn quintet Canon Logic delivers their second positive pop LP “Wyld.” Self-produced, this album come fours years after their debut album and feels celebratory and energized. Filled with piano driven anthems, layers upon layers of vocals and few exciting instrumental additions (saxophone, violin), these five gentlemen eagerly sing their hearts out on an album that is wholly passionate, emotive and, most importantly, fun. The album opens with its title track. Light-hearted and jaunty, this tune has perky repeated piano chords. Lead singer Tim Kiely sings “we don’t want no sorrow” and you won’t get much of it on this album. “Colonel Harri” follows punctuated by sharp guitar riffs. Demonstrating what they do best, the chorus contains a round of all the voices flowing together as they sing “higher higher” in quick progression. This one too is full of optimism with lyrics “the “storm clouds won’t carry out.” Unfortunately, this album has a few misses early on. “Mountain,” one of their singles, feels a little out of place. The saxophone is welcome addition to the mix of instruments, but its use feels more “smooth jazz” than pop rock appropriate. Lyrics “dancing in rainbows” on fourth track “Chameleon” feels just a bit too hokey. Luckily there’s some interesting guttural vocal techniques along with steady finger snaps that distract from corny words, yet its hard to get past the sentiment entirely. But then we get “Runaway.” This cheery escapist tune utilizes a violin, giving the it an Americana feel. The song starts slow but turns into head-bopping fun as it culminates with a variety of panned, urgent vocals. “Carry the Water” takes a slower turn with languid vocals, fuzzy harmonies and a much more suitable use of the saxophone. “Crocodile” rushes forward with eager guitar lines, a simple drum beat and grand sighing “ohs” against Kiely’s almost-shouting belt. While employing some odd imagery (getting eaten by a crocodile), the message of this song is far simpler – putting yourself out there and really going for it. The album itself is resoundingly joyous and playful.There are a few odd numbers on this LP but it remains generally fun and enjoyable, although not quite memorable. There are some great sections, interesting builds and powerful moments but not one singular tune that really makes you go “wow.”
