Still one of the most inventive groups in electronica, Lamb
continued pushing the boundaries of singer/songwriter drum'n'bass three albums
in, and also came to grips with a few of the growing pains of their sophomore
album. Even while Andy Barlow's productions again set a gold standard for
ambitious, evocative, intelligent accompaniment, Louise Rhodes' vocals have
improved noticeably since the occasionally over-reaching Fear of Fours. Yes, her
crying, confessional style of delivery can still wear (especially for a genre
never overly enthusiastic about vocals to begin with), but she's obviously
gained in control without sacrificing intensity. The opener, "What Sound,"
begins with a set of tender love lyrics, gradually expanding with orchestral
strings and Barlow's tight, stop-time production. The paranoid breaks of "One"
give way to a downright extroverted performance on "Sweet," though Rhodes saves
her most pained vocals for the very next track, "I Cry." Barlow scorches on the
Chemicals-style breaks and furious turntablism of "Scratch Bass," but then comes
right back with a pair of beautiful ballads directed inwards. He's also unafraid
to keep the backing (relatively) simple, even on the single "Gabriel." It's
clear that every beat, every effect has been labored over, but thankfully that
impression is an unconscious one. Another nice touch: the admirably low-profile
appearances by excellent musicians like Arto Lindsay on guitar, Me'Shell
NdegeOcello on bass, and Michael Franti on vocals. If there were any doubters
about Lamb being the brightest, most talented singer/producer combo in
electronica, What Sound is all the argument needed to the contrary. ~ Review
