Pro Reviews: Turn Heads
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews After two albums' worth of Paul Simoninfluenced singersongwriter pop, Swedish singersongwriter Tobias Froberg goes for the fakeout on the first quarter of Turn Heads, delivering the manic indiepop bliss of the hyper "Blissful" and the nearly as breathless bassdriven thrust of "Slipping Under the Radar," appealingly nervy and energetic tunes that bode something different for his third goround. But in between those two is the downcast, pianodriven ballad "She Is Becoming Her Mother Again," and that track turns out to be the keystone for the rest of Turn Heads, because the latter threequarters of this lengthy album brings the melancholy without relief or restraint. A few songs come close to the orchestral beauty of Froberg's countryman Jens Lekman (most notably on the simply lovely title track), but without Lekman's daffy lyrical constructs or fondness for over the top floridity. Jose Gonzalez's acoustic minimalism doesn't really work as a comparison either, although Gonzalez's wellknown affection for Nick Drake is clearly a shared taste judging by tracks like the skeletal "Delicate Dance of Ghosts." More of the same isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially when the same is as highquality as this, but "Slipping Under the Radar" and "Blissful" suggest that Tobias Froberg has more sides to his musical personality than he has so far shown, and further exploration would be most welcome. - Stewart Mason, All Music Guide |
