Celebrity’s 6 song EP is beautifully enchanting – unafraid to be pop, unafraid to be alternative and without doubt, unafraid to rock. Taking musical influences from The Cure, Duran Duran and some recent sounds from Radiohead and radio friendly alternative acts – Celebrity is the cure for all your painful nu metal/hardcore/pop punk head aches.
With a combination of soulful vocal arrangements, haunting songwriting and an aura of energy, they’re able to paint a vivid picture in your mind. A picture that, without extensive detail is eloquently clear – evoking dark, yet beautiful imagery that seems to transcend musical boundaries. You will find yourself immersed in its qualities, namely the captivating second track "So Long Farewell" – a model for well written, expressive art as music. There is constant movement from strong, powerful melodic compositions to more serene, quiet moments. It creates a well balanced creative output that makes this effort more than complete.
There is more than a sense of fulfillment, it’s a bittersweet journey though the searching of one’s core. Very few releases will captivate you like this will, like it states in the words of the song "‘James" – “And it feels right”. It sure does.
