Under the Influence of Giants – Under the Influence of Giants (2006)
“Meet me in the clouds / let me work it out / don’t you take it personal“
You probably haven’t found yourself wishing you could find a band who spends too much time listening to their old Bee Gees records, but if you have, you’re in luck with Under the Influence of Giants; this self-titled debut isn’t exactly a disco album (some tracks are though, especially the semi-hit single “Mama’s Room”), but more of an indie pop release with lots of synths and smooth, new wave-ish grooves layered under high-pitched vocals about love affairs and sex; there hasn’t been much news about this band’s activities since 2006, and it’s generally assumed that they’re unofficially broken up, and their members have embarked on a number of solo projects (which their myspace is pretty much solely a vehicle to promote, at this point)
