Description: "The Taby Tapes" are something of a mixture of David Sylvian and Brian Wilson solo: a contemplative, melancholy and hopelessly romantic album, so graceful and strangely atmospheric it almost sounds as if it were recorded underwater. However, the short, sweet and often playful melodies belie the lyrics' often depressing messages, some of which are downright terrifying. The vocalist, highly reminiscent of Anthony Phillips, has a shy, wavering voice that magically interlaces with those of the various female singers. You'll hear some crafty keyboards, floating guitars and soaring choruses throughout but the melodies are all very simple, almost soft-pop like; yet this sober album is given a beautiful and brilliant sheen through the use of various gadgets such as horns, optigan, stylophone, theremin and other curios.
