Matt & Kim - Grand


(2009)

Hipsters unite! Matt and Kim, the new york duo made a album this year and it hit mainstream success with the song Daylight, and with the video hit Lessons Learned. I'm not going to front, I think the Lessons Learned video is awesome! (Which I will post on a comment after give you my two cents on the album). In saying that, their music isn't necessarily amazing. Most of their songs are filled with synth riffs, simple drum beats, vocal harmonies and clapping (typical hipster music). Matt tries to have that innocent indie feel in his voice but instead he comes off cheesy. Kim's Drumming is catchy and extremely simple. However, despite the cheesy vocals and repetitive drumming this group made a pretty solid solid album for two members. It has a feel good flow and can cheer you up when you are feeling low.

Bottom Line 7/10 Charles Clark Musician/Producer
