The Secret Machines - Like I Can
Reviewed by yewknee
I always had ultra high hopes for The Secret Machines. They seemed poised to be a band that could take the best parts of loads of different styles of bands and combine them into a new super-effective work horse. They sort of fell off from their last album and I was a bit hesistant to buy a two-song single that could fall flat as well.. but it seems that they're back on their game now. It's nicely textured, great layered vocals and has that rising tension that I always wanted for them. The b-side is even better than the a-side as they embrace the darker tone that are so good at.
