NEW VINYL LP ON LEGACY 2021
180 GRAM COLORED VINYL.
Theres nothing wrong with echoing classic rock and harmonic pop sounds, especially when its done this well. Drops of Jupiter, Trains two-time Grammy-winning 2001 album, revels in sweeping hooks and soulful comfort borrowed from proven 70s methods. At its core, the San Francisco quintets sophomore record is the result of what happens when concerns about trends and coolness are put aside and solid, genuinely earnest music is made the primary focus. Drawing from influences such as Elton John and Van Morrison, Train crafts eminently listenable fare steeped in finely tailored melodies and bolstered by affirmative messages. Complementary accents in the form of sing-along refrains, folksy mandolins, and scene-setting synthesizer fills give songs grounding and fully realized depth. Time and again, the bands acoustic-based material satisfies and inspiresparticularly now that its finally available in analog.
