DESCRIPTION:
Less is more. It's a philosophy that Austin-based indie folk rock duo Papermoons understands quite well. The idea that you can say a whole lot more without screaming or shouting is evidenced by the brilliantly constructed songs on the band's second long-player No Love, the follow-up to their celebrated debut New Tales. They use subtle transitions, gorgeous Simon & Garfunkel-esque harmonies, intimate performances and gentle attention to every minute detail to create a unique mid-tempo mix of words and sounds that is truly captivating. The way in which each lyric is so precisely delivered (you shake me like a thunderstorm / you pull me like a fire alarm / you put me down when you said you'd pick me) will capture your attention, your mind and if you allow it...your soul. It's difficult to pick a favorite here (that said, listen to album closer Lungs) because the reality is that every track in this impressive cache of beautifully melodic songs is a winner.

A rare album exuding undercurrents of sadness and hope, No Love is a noteworthy achievement marked with an onslaught of care, control, confidence and conviction.
