THE MISERABLE RICH
Overcome
Rags To Ruin Records
'OVERCOME' contains twelve songs and encapsulates all the charms of the band’s earlier string-laden, crafted music.
From the exuberant ‘Ballad Of Young Finn’ and ‘Crows’ to the increasingly defiant ‘Quietly’ and heartfelt closer ‘Poem For Suzanne’, via the elegant ‘Penny For’ – described by de Malplaquet, perhaps flippantly, as “somewhere between Kruder & Dorfmeister and Supertramp, where we’ve always belonged!” – it’s an unmistakable sound, blending elements of indie folk and chamber pop. This time, however, piano, electronics and brass add to their customary mix of acoustic instruments, whether on the rambunctious folk-pop of forthcoming single ‘FHS’, which boasts an unlikely New Orleans twist, the richly textured ‘Everything Bright And New’ or the hushed ‘If Only’, with the latter pair featuring Alabaster de Plume on saxophone.
