Listen and Buy Here
The Foreign Films, from Ontario, are a new discovery for me. This new release is such a lovely listen and provides much needed joy in these dark times.
'Dream With Me Tonight' is a beautiful love song with warm, nostalgic lyrics. - 'Maybe we'll pretend its 1964. Walking in the sand by the old sea shore.' Their sound recalls Teenage Fanclub and The Beach Boys.
'Katie and the Crystal Hearts' is another sweet and sentimental song with strong hooks. 'Birds in a Blue Sky' is my favourite here and has that 60s Byrdsian charm. It is so uplifting and emotional, a recent standout song in this genre.
'Under Your Spell' is quite moody and still retro sounding. 'Stars in her Eyes' is a big, epic ballad with hints of The Beatles and 60s psychedelia. It has such a brilliant blend of sounds, including some great saxophone at the end.
'Dream another Dream' is a lovely closer and has perfect harmonies. A highly recommended album, to any fan of melodic guitar pop.
