The Softies, a duo of wonderful ladies, crafted short songs about love and heartbreak. their recordings are very simple: two guitars, two lovely voices, good recording. pretty straight forward, but excellently executed. both of the ladies did some time in twee pop bands (including the underappreciated Go Sailor!) and you can really hear that in these songs, with octave chords and strummed rhythm lines.
this is their last album "Holiday In Rhode Island." the songs are short, simple, and heartbreaking. get ready to cry, motherfuckers, these lyrics are sad. their voices are evocative and personal, giving these lyrics more effect even than what they already carry, with lilting harmonies and quiet emotion.
i highly recommend this album to anyone who likes solid twee pop.
