Details:
The second album - and the first EP - from Minimus the Poet echoes the folk-injected rock featured on the debut release "E S O", but introduces a new confidence and a more cohesive effort that will certainly capture the attention of new and old fans alike.
"Prudence" is a feel-good, folk-and-bluegrass number with a catchy hook and toe-tapping swagger. "Drying Out" paints a colorful picture with unique instrumentation and loquacious, oft-indecent lyrics. "Poison", once a piano/vocal ballad B-side from 2009''s "E S O", sports a fresh arrangement that evokes the human heartbeat, and showcases new depth and instruments - namely the banjo. "Indigo", also a rearranged B-side, is a haunting folk tune featuring Minimus'' hallmark theremin. The title track, "Married In The Mud", is an accessible crossover track that pushes the limits on run-of-the-mill pop rock, testing the listener with syncopated percussion and meter changes, rewarding their effort with an unforgettable chorus that you''ll inevitably hum in your sleep.
"E S O", as reviewed by Greg Robson, https://www.tradebit.com -
"...triumphant moments, most notably, the sweetly affecting "Paperweights" and the placid album closer "Prelude." Layered over acoustic guitar, organs and bells, "Paperweight[s]," is a chilly, gospel-influenced duet with singer Dana Alexandra that''s tortured, desperate and heart-wrenching. The song has the kind of transcendent and timeless quality that could very well find placement in movie soundtracks and is arguably as gorgeous and aching as anything released this year. On a song like this the band''s left-of-center vision shines and their inherent potential is clearly visible. The same can be said for the swampy backwoods cut "Crucible on Lake Lanier," with a winning piano line and lyrics that read like a Flannery O''Connor novel. Additionally, "Something''s Not Right," is an inspired alt-country rocker with rousing movements, reaching vocals and a straightforward directness that might do well at college radio. "
