Comfort Deluxe by The Crash - DeepRiffs

ALBUM

Given the fact that few people could swing a dead cat and strike an English-speaking indie guitar synth pop band hailing from Finland, one would assume the world wasn't missing all that much. Luckily, the Crash's debut oddity glimmers with scope, bursting with color to potentially put catches in throats on a global scale. Opening with an adoring embrace of friends, fans, and loved ones that steers itself toward James' better-known melodic tangents and climaxing with a heartfelt expanse of escalating feedback and diminishing electronic rims, there is a lot to point out: when "World of My Own" shifts from glum to summer-field bliss or the moment in "Muse" where -- right before the big chorus stretch -- a gutting whoosh of scraps floats in and keeps you on edge for the rest of the day. Keep in mind all the while Teemu Brunila guides these goggle-eyed themes with a voice like a prepubescent David Bowie, letting his drowsy affection breathe, and illuminating a certain jejune defrost that will cause many a smile. Alluring then, and definitely curious.
