Listen to Copleand – You are My Sunshine Album

music is for lovers: Latest post

If you don’t like Copeland, you’re probably sick of reading about them. However, if you do like them; read on. After purchasing the album, I think it lacks a bit of punch. I still like it, and it’s growing on me; but it’s not as good as the last few albums. I’ve included a few tracks, so decide for yourself.

They’ve chilled it out a bit–and while I like chill, this feels a bit more disheartened to me than it does chill. Perhaps disheartened is the wrong word, because it’s certainly dripping with everything from dark lyrics to contented tone. Perhaps it’s just, overall, a rather dark album that rarely does see the sunlight.

“Good Morning Fire Eater” and “Grey Man” are my favorite. They’re my favorites because they actually break. They move into some rockin’ guitars, strong layers, and the full sound I love.

Check out “The Album Projects” review for a good read.

All that being said, I would most certainly buy it again.

Check out a few tracks:
