Musically these dichotomies are being resolved in a songwritingas clear and beautiful as a mountain lake. The Green Apple Sea, "state-of-the-art folk- and country- influenced Indiepop in Germany" (INTRO magazine), deliver ten variations of the perfect pop song. The defining element of the albums sound are complex vocal harmonies, soaring into graceful chorales and strewing countless beautiful melodies into these songs. Another important constituent is the subtle and subversive drumming. There isnt any consistent drumming that accompanies thesesongs but intricate patterns, created by two drummers, swelling an ebbing inside of them.The result knits the harmonies of fully depressed Beach Boys to the tender arrangements of Nick Drake and to the compositional brilliance of Wilco - a decountrified folk music, reminiscent of the early British and American folk-pop songs � la Chad & Jeremy of the 1950s and 60s.
