Album Review
Brandtson's Trying to Figure Each Other Out features six pop gems plus a hidden remix of "As You Wish," from the band's Fallen Star Collection album. The remix is done by the electronic band Furnace St., based in Oberlin, OH. This is definitely an object of interest, given its peculiarity in contrast to Brandtson's typical material. However, the real meat of the album — the six songs by Brandtson — are without a doubt fantastic. Following the course of Brandtson's career up to this point, it is noticeable that Trying to Figure Each Other Out is another big step in a fresh direction for this band from Cleveland, OH. These songs aren't nearly as heavy as the stuff on Letterbox, and aren't as dark and dismal as the material on Fallen Star Collection or Letterbox. But these are not upbeat love songs either. As a matter of fact, they all seem to be about heartbreak and "trying to figure each other out." The music is pure emo-pop, and Brandtson's amazing duel vocal combination of Jared Jolley and Myk Porter is a success.
Customer Reviews
The best any EP can get
The dual vocals could not be more well done. Once again, there are so many memories I have from listening to this EP; I wish all could feel the nostalgia as I do. As someone who feels convicted by the Ruach Hakodesh to only listen to music aimed at spiritual issues (which I feel this EP actually does), I really appreciate great indie rock like Brandtson. Favorites: "Sic Transit Gloria (Glory Fades)" and "Leaving Ohio."
hahahahahahaha
this only got 2 reviews!!!! that's funny. i like brandston, but the only song i like from this cd would have to be "Sic Transit Gloria (glory fades)" other song to look for by brandston would be "here we go" "earthquakes and sharks" "nobody dances anymore" an other songs from the "Hello, Control" cd. = }
good lookin back
I love this band, and I'm glad that 1000 miles away I still think of them and still get to hear them.
