Mouthful of Bees it Sure is

Mellow, ramshackle, beautiful are all adjectives that I would use to describe Mouthful of Bees' self-titled new album. The simple lo-fi instrumentation, coupled with an overal shoegaze aesthetic really makes this album evocative. An interplay of male and female vocals combine with swirling horns and twinkling piano keys to create an enveloping atmosphere on many of the standout tracks. When you get the album, check out the final track, Rory is Off-Limits, if you're in the mood for a massive, hazy piano opus. One of my favorite tracks, Please and Thank You will transport you places and is the perfect song for an hot afternoon by a lake. Similar to Chiddy Bang, Mouthful of Bees will be playing this summer on my speakers, but for another reason altogether.
