It’s not always melancholy-ville around Slowcoustic HQ…well often it is, but not always.  Sometimes you need to tap your toes and even possibly nod your head to something fun.  As pained as I am to say, it isn’t always about a down on his luck guy with an acoustic guitar.  To prove it….FAUNTS!

Description:

With its effervescent guitars, mathematic loops and synthesizers, surging drums, and seemingly nomadic bass lines, Feel.Love.Thinking.Of., the second full-length from Canadian up-and-comers Faunts, is both more ambitious in its conception and more focused.

An even greater description from their website:

Now Faunts’ latest articulation, the full-length “Feel. Love. Thinking. Of.” (out February 17th, 2009 on Friendly Fire Recordings) stands as the culmination of two years of touring, recording, and crafting of another uniquely original sonic soundscape. At once orchestral and sprawling; ambient, yet driving, “Feel. Love. Thinking. Of.” encompasses perfectly Faunts’ ambitious devotion to sculpting not only a musical moment, but an entire atmosphere which accompanies that moment.
