O'Brother - The Death Of Day download album

This grand quality that O’ Brother commit to their music is the best part of The Death of Day. Time and time again it walks the narrow line between tedium and pretentiousness, constantly overbalancing yet never quite falling and somehow always maintaining direction and flow. Taking due note of fellow tourmates This Will Destroy You’s parabolic song structure, the youthful quintet’s style itself is an ambiguous mix of post-rock and indie, with subtle hints of post-hardcore scattered spontaneously across the vast soundscapes.

To be sure, The Death of Day is a grower. Providence" opens with a few seconds of ominous, offsetting feedback before a frenetic, bass-driven fit follows and the song really kicks in, eventually adding tasteful layers like strings and xylophone. It also gives the listener a first impression of ianist Tanner Merritt, who has a fairly deep, kinda smokey delivery that stays somewhat steady and breathy through the EP's course.

Which may have been true, despite O Brother, Where Art Thou?, the Coen brothers' delightfully warm and weird Depression-era re-telling of Homer's Odyssey. But for music lovers, 2000 was an amazing year at the movies, and it produced several excellent soundtrack compilations including Almost Famous, Dancer in the Dark, Wonder Boys, and High Fidelity. Even with such steep competition, the soundtrack album for O Brother, Where Art Thou? may be the best of the year. And Stanley's a cappella performance of "O Death" sets a chilling tone for a climactic struggle at a Ku Klux Klan rally. Throughout, Burnett's steady guiding hand is evident.
