REVIEW: Gem Club - Acid And Everything

7.75 out of 10

Gem Club are a duo based out of Massachusetts. Their sound is delicate, minimal, and pitch perfect for harmonious environments. Gem Club's debut EP "Acid And Everything" is one of 2010's shining moments as well a breathtaking example of what you get when you mix Classical compositions with mellon collie-Indie music.

The formula for this album is: Simple/elegant brilliance complimenting terrific glimmering minimalism there to relax you and put your everything at ease. Piano, cello, bells, sustained ambiance, and delicate/subdued vocals set a nigh perfect reposed score for when you just need to unwind and/or possibly be romantic with the one you love. My one complaint about "Acid And Everything" is that it seems a bit short (still perfect though), and I need so much more of this, right now.

Get this for when you want to feel hazy OR if you're looking for your next "pretty piano album", your search is over. Fans of Memoryhouse and/or Perfume Genius you will LOVE this band (..if you haven't heard them by now). Highly Recommended.

Standout Tracks: I like em' all, but especially; Sevens, Acid And Everything, Animals, Spine
