Comment
: Winstonmcnamara is a musician from Wankona, Italy who had issued the debut album Amore E Iodio on 42 Records/24 in 2011. The follow-up Dustbeen is represented by far more radical turns regarding his songwriting approach because of replacing Italian to English and offering up more subtlety and a wider range of dynamism in composition. His voice is remarkably subdued and channelized through the filters. Indeed, the outlet is highly captivating which is already compared with the likes of Beck, Atlas Sound and Sparklehouse. All is right except the fact that Beck used to chime more tedious on the most of his albums. However, besides electronics-soaked guitar twangs augmented with crispy programmed beats (those vintage synth sounds/effects are absolutely outasight) and the listener can detect the influences of lush Americana, harmonica-driven southern rock, enthralling orchestrated/baroque pop, whimsical art rock. However, the favorite of mine is the 13-minute length The Ballad of Crooked Smiles which starts out with fragile Americana-galvanized whiffs, though, soon developing into more noiseful wah-wah templates and synth effects which in turn will arrive at Mercury Rev-tinged elusive pop once again. Never mind, all the pieces on it are superb (produced for the time span of 2000-2009). In a word, enjoy it!
