With nuances of psychedelic in this folk rock album, Tumbler invokes in us a safeguard to explore what is fascinating and is an upstart to all things that coasts us down toward the abnormal and strange. You Said is the Tumbler’s latest album, and it speaks straight to what is primal in all things innate in the human heart. With no barb wires in all the sounds, what may come across to listeners in this precautionary get-up is that we are embarking on something momentous. What lands as gold in this album is that the record does set us up in what we are listening to. It glistens not just with the new but also with the old. With an oldies folk feel, there is a ring of cheery sunshiny uplifting and upbeat feel.
Hailing from Epsom, England, Tumbler consists of Richard Grace, Dave Needham, and Harry Grace. They decided on the band’s moniker, Tumbler, because it was short and easy to remember, and it all really had to do with the simplistic touch it added to what the band stood for.
With accents all across the rock fringes, You Said is an album with a classic style. It’s an uncomplicated rock project with reaches of influences from Leonard Cohen, Paul Simon, and Bob Dylan. It is glossily produced with wonder orchestrations and harmonies on the guitar, drums, and keyboard. It deserves to be hailed for its gloriously refined pieces that are endlessly fascinating and resounding.
A stand-out on the album would have to be the track, “Sleepy bananas are cool,” that has connotations of late night lullabies. With a lulling, sleepy quality, this is a straight nod to what Jack Johnson’s one man solo act offers. It is quirky and has a folksy feel that is accented with all the follies of the upbeat pop track.
In “Dennis and Jean” we see a band gearing toward feeling for something more momentous. Out stepping from the lullabies-mode, we see a memorable track shedding its gentle shelter and going toward a more sinking and meaningful walk in the English countryside. It plays well, with mentions of the classical music’s greats, and a very distinctive feel.
With echoes of Ray Davies and The Kinks in their sound, there is definitely a pull to their resourceful album. The reverb on guitar has touches of sorrow in it. There is definitely a melancholy sense to this album. The twang of guitar also adds a country feel to this album as well.
The melding of great artistic showmanship is really displayed well in this album. The musicianship is above all superb, and the vocals definitely adds a lonely play on the English countryside. The welcoming sound is a hurtling canopy and a canvas for what the Tumblers want to show in their latest endeavor. Audiences will be enraptured by the delightful surprises that they will find in this album. You said is truly a masterfully done album that will have far-reaching effects of audience members for decades.
