Customer Reviews

An improvement
I've had these two young men's first disk since around when it came out and have waited for a new disk in the hopes that they would add more vocals and cut back on the lengthly 7 minute songs. My wish came true. The men are studio genius, they make some of the most wonderful loops in recent memory. I would suggest this disk to anyone who likes involving, spirling songs.

See them live
i have to agree with nephilim63's review on this. The Helio Sequence opened for Modest Mouse the other day and were simply amazing. I thought they were a fantastically fresh and smooth sound. but the touching vocals and strong (very strong) drumming got lost when transporting these guys to this studio album. Maybe if they could release a recording of live shows they'll see how much more people like that sound. As it is, this sounds too washed over and calmed from what i heard in that club and what i heard in the club was great.

16-layer dip too filling
I saw these guys at SxSW and was amazed at the amount of sound and energy they were able to generate for just two guys. I was impressed enough to pick up a copy of the CD at the show based largely on the song 'Cut the Camera' which is also the best song on the CD. Unfortunately, many of the songs get lost in a wash of synth-loops and other effects in a man v. machine struggle for control. The potential is certainly there once they gain enough confidence in their vocals and songwriting to let the songs and melodies breath a little more. Will they be given a chance?
