Parcels - Day/Night (LP)
While Parcels’ more unique sounds can be heard in the album, the production frequently borrows from the past. Day/Night precariously walks the line between pastiche and cliché. For instance, the extended version of ‘Famous’ sees an instrumental funk section that sounds like it originates from 1977, followed by a brief exploratory jazz section which is similarly convincing. These moments are exemplary of the fact that the Parcels outfit are undeniably good at recreating classic-sounding production, but at times you wonder why they need to borrow from musical relics when the band otherwise has its own fantastic signature tone.
The album redeems itself with sensational bangers such as ‘Free’, which is characteristically infectious. A strong piano riff lays the foundation of a track which demonstrates the ability of frontman Jules Crommelin to write vocal lines that are instantly appealing and memorable. The band’s signature tone does make several appearances, though often developed and experimented-with in tracks such as ‘NowIcaresomemore’. This song sees the recognisable guitar chops, irresistible bass lines and rich vocal harmonies that fans are used to, but from a different angle; the sound is more vulnerable and stripped-back, while the heavily auto-tuned vocal refrain is haunting and gorgeous.
