Something I Like/TIME VAULT: FALL 2007


Every once in a while, i constantly listen to Vetiver. this was the first album of theirs that i had heard, and i remember hearing Been So Long and being completely awestruck. it's so completely simple, but it's complexly simple. something like that. but the whole album is simple. there's G to C chord progressions in multiple songs, but Andy Cabic's melodies are what make these songs better than other good songs. something like Maureen: mainly C, G and F, but the melody is incredible and the sublte guitar parts throughout diferenciate between the other songs with similar chords. Won't Be Me is too lively to not feel good. i mean, there really isn't a song that i don't really like. this album does, however, have a certain relationship with some other time. but it's not overwhelming, not that it's even a bad thing per say. mainly good vibrations coming from this. it's something i come back to constantly.
