Band/artist history
Beekeepers Society have a scholarship to exclusive Studios, despite the fact that they really arn't as smart as their demeanour would suggest. They relentlessly talk themselves up, form and join shows and seem to impress as many people as they annoy all with a very thin veil of lies to support it. When they fell in love with a music teacher (Curtis Anderson) things appeared wonderful but it was not long before they have messed things up. Their frustrated friend (Hollie Stevenett) tried to help but only succeeded in making things much, much worse and Darcy risked losing everything that was important to him.
The band members are impressive and work well with each other. Fred has much more meat in his bass role than he did with Marble Attic and he does very good work with it throughout while also managing to carry off his deadpan delivery as well as usual. Darcy is spot on with his vocals that we are never able to truly like but have to get behind at the same time he pitches it just right and shows a great understanding of his vocal Melodies. Josie is beautiful and vulnerable and works well in her role on keyboard while support is good from Dave on electric. Special mention to TR7 for being the sweetest redemption I've seen in many a band and pulls off the geeky but wonderful toy of many of our dreams.
Overall this is a good band but not one that will appeal to the majority of listeners or be the one to win over those that just don't like indie or experimental music. The songs and members are interesting throughout and the music succeeds because it manages to mix emotional content with darkly quirky humour rather than doing one at the expense of the other. An enjoyable band and probably my favourite thus far.

Douglas Coupland . Very nice vibe in this song for me. I like the voice treatment. Small tech point... Kick is flamming, check that midi track... I'll be back to check out more for sure.
