A Silent Film

So a few weeks ago I posted about a song by the band A Silent Film titled "Danny, Dakota, & the Wishing Well." I recently purchased the entire album, thanks to my trusty CD Warehouse, and it hasn't come out of my car's sterio since. Every song is so good! Their sound is so full and rich. The tunes are also all extremely catchy and easy to pick up on. I could eventually see A Silent Film being one of the biggest bands in Britain, already taking after the likes of Coldplay and Keane with the sound of piano along with the rest of the band.
Robert Stevenson's vocals croon about love lost and gained again while taking you on an imaginary journey from the stage, to the ocean, and to a wishing well. "Danny, Dakota, & the Wishing Well" is my favorite song from the album, but not far behind are the next few tracks "Anastasia" and "Harbour Lights." You cannot listen to "Anastasia" quietly and I just think "Harbour Lights" is so beautiful. The lyrics are very poetic and deep. "You were my rock, never my stepping stone."
All in all everyone needs to go out and buy this record. You can get "Sand & Snow" on iTunes or maybe you have a record store near you. It was in Springfield, Missouri (astonishingly) so hopefully it will be. They also have a debut record titled "The City That Sleeps" and that will be my next venture. Love this band!

Songs to watch out for:

This Stage is Your Life
Danny, Dakota, & the Wishing Well
Anastasia

Queen of a Sad Land
