Snowglobe are influenced by acts like The Beatles and Electric Light Orchestra. The 14 selections on this disc are lighthearted and upbeat, sure to have you taping your feet and bouncing to the beat. On tracks like "Dry", the use of strong and elaborate brass and string ensembles gives the tune a Beatles-like feel. Another impressive facet of this band is their ability to incorporate instruments like the saw and steel guitar. Snowglobe's ability to create a sound so strongly rooted in classic rock but yet keep things original and fresh really attests to the top-notch musicianship of this band. Thumbs way up for this one.
