While remaining loyal to layered guitar interplay, varied male-female vocalizing, and instantly hummable songcraft, Spent has created a noticeably subdued, cohesive collection, worthy of repeated listening in order to take in all of its subtleties. From the gnarled wistfulness of \"Stumble Up the Stairs\" to the stark majesty of \"Until We Have Enough\"; from the unapologetic pop of \"Under False Eyelids\" to the first rate instrumental \"No Sign of the Ponies\", Spent continue to recreate and reveal themselves in a variety of melodic guises. Piano and clarinet (\"The Quarter Conspiracy\"), keyboards and Moog (\"The Pilot's Lament\", \"He's Into Lonely\") and trumpet (on the title track) are also enlisted to flavor the album's already expansive musical palette.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"merge records","offers":[{"title":"Download","offer_id":52739159818551,"sku":"MRG114digital","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/3935\/3143\/files\/bfe690ebb3fbf7085518a6295ae26b5fbfc4ccee_589e6c3a88dff9f769ff4b41657fa28a269898db_medium_jpg.jpg?v=1785380105","url":"https:\/\/mergerecords.com\/products\/spent-a-seat-beneath-the-chairs","provider":"Merge Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
