Triple apple day!

The Apples in Stereo - Fun Trick Noisemaker

I listened to this album an unhealthy number of times a few months ago. The debut album from Robert Schneider and co is, in my opinion and others I've talked to, the best album they have made, and one of the best albums produced by the Elephant Six Recording Company. The album is classic for any indie-pop fan.

I'm going to say this honestly. I think this album includes more hooks than any I've ever listened to, so if that's you style, then this is definitely an album you should download. "Tidal Wave" just will explode from your speakers. I can't say any more about this album, I might get too into it and I have to do homework.

13 songs, 40 minutes

The Apples in Stereo - Tone Soul Evolution

Woah dude, the Apples are so polished on this record (and the next one too). It's still very good psychedlic pop though. It's the same old Apples even if the production is somehwat different, expect some great hooks. My reviews kind of suck. I'm sorry. It's kind of hard though and I don't have all that much time, so excuse me. My favorite song might be the cute acoustic song "About Your Fame" or the opener "Seems So" that sets the tone for the album. This album feels like it belongs in the 60's with their addicting pop tunes reminiscent of the Beatles. If you're a fan of the Beatles in their poppier days, you'll probably love this band.

The Apples in Stereo - The Discovery of the World Inside the Moone

This one's more along the lines of Tone Soul Evolution, with a large amount of production. It contains some of the best song the Apples have made in "The Rainbow" and "Stream Running Over." If there's one thing I've learned from listening to this album, you cannot sit there and not love Robert Schneider singing (and sometimes screaming) his heart out over these gentle catchy pop beats. It ends with the pretty acoustic nonchalant song "The Afternoon", putting a fantasic finish to the album. I could say more but there's not much more of a point, I can't say much more about it, it's just a good pop album, essential for fans of the Apples in Stereo.

The Apples in Stereo are coming out with a new album this year, I'm pretty excited. I have to go read Frankenstein now or something of that sort, but I should be back tomorrow. I'll do another Apples post within the coming weeks probably, if you like what you hear.
