{ Lismore- We Could Connect or We Could Not }

Lismore are a NY duo that flirt with trip-hop and glitch-pop, and this debut album definitly has what it takes to connect with music lovers of all genres. The album opens with the Radiohead-esque �Tremelo� and then jumps into the indie-rock flavored �Pour Un Ancien Ami�. Later Lismore get in touch with their Portishead side on �Cut� and even show some Bjork influence on �Aika Miura�. What is most interesting is how Lismore never get caught up in any specific genre, but rather touch on them and then quietly and seamlessly move on. We Could Connect or We Could Not is littered with so many catchy melodies that one can�t help but wonder how this gem has gone largely unnoticed.... - Written by Jay, read more of his reviews at Caffeine-Headache.net.

Damn!

That cover art is amazing!
Does anybody know who's responsible? I tried to snoop it out on their website, but couldn't find a credit.
They do offer a faboo downloadable wallpaper of the cover image, tho....

Nice pick, Jay. I'm definitely feeling it.
