Editorial Reviews
Under The Radar, Spring 2005
"Fourteen songs of string, piano, and horn brilliance...classic balladry."
Product Description
Foxes & Hounds is the eagerly awaited follow-up to The Sharp Things' 2003 debut CD, Here Comes The Sharp Things.
Featuring performances by more than a dozen musicians, this ambitious effort takes The Sharp Things' penchant for mood variation to new heights. Take the upbeat tune "The Suicide Bombers"; sporting a lyric about self-destructive Hollywood screenwriters, the song will have you doing the Electric Slide on the first pass. "Homeless" harnesses the band's classic grandiose melancholia, while "She Left With The Sun" conjures up a Motown collision with Traffic and the Left Banke. "50 Heads Over High Street" reminds us that the band can still rock out when they want to--but not without a blissful string arrangement.
