“Like Vines” is the bands first CD “So Sudden,” but with Patrick Stump and Sean O’Keefe on production. With that being said I must say I thought This record was going to turn The Hush Sound into something they are not and taint the bands very original sound, but this record was the best of both worlds. The Hush Sounds originality is still there and always will be, but now with a pinch of Stumps Mainstream hooks , and a dash of Sean O’keefe’s sound board Skills. The piano is worked very well into this CD and is not over produced but kept the way it should be. In my eyes this album shines brightest when both male and female vocals are used in the same song. I love the way “Like Vines” flows every track from male voice to female voice, but theres nothing like “Don’t Wake Me Up,” “Wine Red,” or the end of “What Went Wrong.” Bob and Greta’s solo tracks are also very good, with “You Are The Moon” by Greta being my favorite track on the whole cd.(I get this Willi Wonka vibe from it.) The lyrics I still question… I dig how they are different and not about what everyone else is talking about, but on the other hand it is almost too many happy things to throw in one cd… I mean “magnolia’s, tangerines, vines,skies,and moons” are awesome cause its different, nowadays, but they could have done a lot better on the lyrical aspect. The music is simple but complex which is what I love about the Hush Sound, they are such a chill band but you give them a hot second and they will rock your socks off. If you were a fan of The Hush Sound before you still will be , and if you don’t know who this chicago based band is then go pick up “Like Vines,” it will surely make you smile, maybe too much!
