…music video? – Fireproof Your TV [2004]
Back when I started with this blog, I posted a quite short review for …music video?’s second album Now That My TV Has Wings, I’ll Never Be Lonely. Up until a couple of days ago, it was the only release I owned and somehow I can’t imagine how I could not get Fireproof Your TV, their debut album earlier.
The 13 songs on the album mash up pop, rock and electro to make this quite unique style …mv? has the secret of. Watercolors is the first song I heard when checking out …mv? on myspace forever ago and years later, it’s still as brilliant as it was with the insisting beat and piano chords, best way to start off the CD. The rest flows in quite smoothly and flawlessly.
My personal favs are Figure Of Speech, Watercolors, Another Borderline Emergency, Abandoned Highways and Lost At Sea but I can’t help playing the whole album on repeat. And I’m not a natural electro fan.
