Real Estate: Real Estate (LP)


1)This is a band that I have talked about already, seen live and generally liked.
2)I am not sure if I have ever done a negative review on this blog.
3)Here it comes

Real Estate's new LP (Nov. 17th on Woodsist)has nothing to say. In fact, the lyrics and the larger band take away from the band's real strength, which is Mondanile's ear for melody. The whole project is much more rewarding in its incarnation as Mondanile's other band, Ducktails. There, guitars are free to wander, lyrics are generally nowhere to be found, and the songs aren't forced into pop formulas.

All that being said, these guys are talented and are giving it their best, so you could do far worse with your money than buying their mediocre LP at Insound.
