Smart. The new EP from The Myriad, You Can’t Trust a Ladder, is just plain smart.
These guys really know how to use their voices to create gorgeously layered harmonies, and keep them tight in the process. The band has an interesting mix of lofty melodies and lots of energy that make this EP nice and moody. Great guitars and drums propel the music forward, lots of good tempo changes keep you involved but don’t distract from the atmospheric quality of the melodies. The vocals could be placed near those of Thom Yorke and Radiohead with their soaring melodies and clarity. At times the band is also reminiscent of older Blindside, in their quieter moments. The album is clean and well produced, but not overly produced, as so many recent bands seem to be. And who is responsible for that? Aaron Marsh, the man behind Copeland’s great sound, produced this album and the band’s soaring melodies show you why he would. [Floodgate]Bonnie Masri
