Scientists around the world are unanimous: global warming is out to get you. Most recently, global warming struck close to home, though not literally MY home."The Boats" (which includes members of UK groups "the remote viewer" & ex-"hood").. got swept up by "the sea".. At first I was angry, which is natural. "Damn you, the Sea," I yelled!! 'Daaammmnn yoouuuu--! "The Boats" had just released their 3rdLP and things couldn't have been looking brighter. But suddenly they were gone."The Sea" heard my impassioned yells, and months later I found this album "The Boats are in the Bay" on reel-to-reel tape lying upon the shore. My guess is that "the boats" were swallowed up by a giant whale, recording the days away inside, using parts of their wrecked boat. Old, broken instruments play soft and simple melodies swamped with lost memories and a glowing warmth. Esker's vocals strongly reverberate in the belly of the beast as she sings out, hoping to sooth their whale host to sleep and someday escape. Fans of the boats should definitely pick this album up ASAP. "The Sea" explore the more organic side of ambient pop. Comparisons could be drawn to "müm" or the intimacy of "shugo tokumaru" or and the studio prowesse of "sigur ros" - but we don't draw comparisons around here. You can't capture "the sea".Need more info? Try an
