Animal Liberation Orchestra - Girl I Wanna Lay You Down (Bushfire)
3/5
By: Yousif Nur
Don't be fooled by the name - no, they're not in any way, shape or form as experimental and eccentric as the Animal Collective variety, oh no siree.
Instead, what we do have here is a slice of pleasant west coast, Hawaii-minded pop, the type that Jack Johnson would very much approve of, hence being touring and label mates. 'Girl...' surprisingly is exactly as aforementioned - merely nice. But that's about it.
But as the impending autumn season approaches ever nearer, ALO make the sunset on the summer a bit more bearable aurally. And sometimes that's just fine and dandy - nothing special, nothing groundbreaking; just sunset music to soundtrack the tide coming in.
The first person to sing the line 'this, is, the, end, of, the, summer' however gets a slap.
