Matt LeFevers -AKA- This Glass Embrace: Confessional stories of love lost and found, set to complex indie rock. Sometimes bitterly sarcastic, sometimes tearfully earnest, always honest and heartfelt.
Bio / Background
The best albums are the ones you don't hear all at once.
They're the kind of album you can listen to for years and still find a new sound or instrument you never noticed before. The kind that have to be listened to in a quiet room, with headphones on and your eyes closed, before they reveal all their secrets.
Matt LeFevers spent all of 2005 holed up in his home studio, with the mission of creating just that kind of album. One that balances simplicity and accessible melodies with complex instrumentation and depth.
The unswervingly honest vocals, ranging from desperate confessions to cynical jabs with the same matter-of-fact ease. The flawlessly executed guitars. These things you notice the first time this album hits your speakers. But did you hear the delicate mandolin lines? Or the mournful cello?
The songs tell stories of love, despair, and contentment, delivered with intelligence and soul-baring openness.
↓ more ↓But it's the depth behind the songs, the complex but multilayered soundscape of instruments, that forms the perfect backdrop for these lyrical diary entries, and that sets this album well apart from the typical one-man acoustic endeavor.
-----------------------------
NOTE: this heretofore-untitled project has since been christened with a proper name: This Glass Embrace. The album, however, will continue to say "Matt LeFevers" in place of a band name, as most of the distributors do not allow a post-release name change.
