The projects gentle, acoustic-centered approach and sophisticated harmonic textures dont skip a beat, however, on a set that connects the dots between wistful indie pop, airy, syncopated bossa nova, and singer\/songwriter folk traditions. Some of the albums standouts include the warm, silky bossa outing Angel, an eyebrow-raising, whispery ode to an object of affection (Though she might be\/Just slightly\/Promiscuous). The more somber opener Rumours showcases the duos elegant vocal harmonies, while the melancholy, uncertain Killers relies on a solo vocal over their interlaced fingerstyle guitar lines. These are further highlighted by pair of duets with Feist; the spacious Love Is a Lonely Thing dispenses with vulnerable relationship advice as the singers trade lines, only coming together for the words Once youve known that magic\/Who can live without it? Later, Catholic Country, which was co-written with the Staves, offers further Gilberto-inspired stylings and a brisker tempo on a duet softly fleshed out by piano and percussion. While Kings of Convenience dont cover fresh territory with Peace or Love, they do what they do as impeccably as ever here and offer a handful of changeups and hummable tunes along the way. It should serve as a welcome return for any established fans. ~ Marcy Donelson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Rumours\u003cbr\u003e2.Rocky Trail\u003cbr\u003e3.Comb My Hair\u003cbr\u003e4.Angel\u003cbr\u003e5.Love Is a Lonely Thing\u003cbr\u003e6.Fever\u003cbr\u003e7.Killers\u003cbr\u003e8.Ask for Help\u003cbr\u003e9.Catholic Country\u003cbr\u003e10.Song About It\u003cbr\u003e11.Washing Machine\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pias","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52020463370529,"sku":"5400863192235","price":85.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/5400863192235.jpg?v=1763612578","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ca\/products\/5400863192235","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
