This group bills itself as chamber pop, which I would define as being the kind of pop music you could perform in your living room without amplifiers. It's fairly ornate sounding stuff, but it's all very mellow. Still, the songwriting does command attention; the band is pushing "Unfairness Awareness," a short discourse on how everybody's getting what they want for Christmas but the singer. "I'm Not Really in the Christmas Mood This Year" speaks for itself and "Winter's Feat" is an uptempo meditation on the holiday featuring funky rhythms under some Kate Bush-styled harmony. There are a couple of very brief instrumentals, "Detour: Frosty Times Ahead" and "Slowly Melting Silent Snowmen." Other songs like "Saturday's Gone," "The Unloved," "Lost,", "Afterglow" and "Ferguson's Theme" do not appear to be holiday oriented. It's on Bandcamp, so stream it or download it for yourself.
