On their self-titled debut, Electric President duo Ben Cooper and Alex Kane perpetuate Morr’s ongoing flirtation with song-oriented pop (specifically a vocal-based amalgam of pop, folk, and electronica) signaled by last year’s The Go Find (Miami) and Styrofoam (Nothing’s Lost) releases, and popularized en masse by Ben Gibbard’s recent Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie success. And while Cooper does possess an intimate, slightly nasal vocal style that vaguely recalls Gibbard (a subtle snarl even surfacing through the twang of his vocal in “Hum”), Electric President actually contains a modest number of moping moments, the duo more interested in generating an elephantine roar like the kind heard in “We Were Never Build to Last.”
The album’s ten songs generally adhere to classic song structure, with sparser folk choruses escalating to multi-tiered choruses boosted by dense layers of electric guitars, strings, and drums, the album merging an intimate bedroom feel with the wide-screen breadth of ornate arrangements. In “Some Crap About the Future,” the group backs a straightforward vocal line with stately electric guitars and classic shoegaze while the neo-glam “Ten Thousand Times” sounds like T. Rex meets Death Cab by way of Smashing Pumpkins and The Beach Boys.

What exactly makes George Orwell a part of his music? I am listening to S/T and, although not really listening to the lyrics specifically, I don't see it. Is it in his lyrics?

@Alley-oop21 Yes, it is. So, so, right...? "Somewhere between a collection and a new record. Or I guess it's a new record built from a collection. Album 2.5 for us, instead of number 3. Though I'm not sure there will be a number 3." Well, Ben doesn't look very happy with the album, in my opinion, what do you think? - http://www.radicalface.com/

Athrailcatarasis: we tried to work out the lyrics in this thread: http://www.last.fm/group/Ben+Cooper/forum/83497/_/412844 But it was a little difficult as his words get quite muffled sometimes.

no other bands sound anything like this... so sad, i love this music so much... they need more... if you haven't heard it yet, try to find the "unreleased" album with the artist name of patients.
