UncutTechnicolor Health amply delivers on the promis of their 2007 EP, "Burning Birthdays." [Apr 2009, p.86]
-
In reality, Technicolor Health is a remarkably eclectic, dynamic album even in its use of rather obvious launching points.
-
Technicolor Health is as bright and vital as the title implies.
-
Scored with ramshackle grandeur by scribbly guitars, fat horns, poignant keyboards and ragtag sing-alongs, Benaim’s lyrics narrate the anxieties and optimisms of New York City’s young, educated and underemployed.
-
Maybe the record could have been improved by splitting up the opening duo of songs, maybe a less fussy production job could have done the trick.
-
Harlem Shakes are in their early days and still sound like they are trying a little too hard; it’s an absolutely excusable quality in a young band, if not always endearing. Harlem Shakes have plenty to be proud of; they’ve also got even more to prove the next time around.
-
Fortunately, even if the band's lack of cynicism often veers to the opposite extreme, the Harlem Shakes' handshake-and-smile approach is hard to outright dislike.
