Yesterday I went out to see a Swedish ba nd called EF . "Walls of Sound" were the words written under the flyer of the venue, so I expected those walls and wasn't disappointed. First on stage was the three-piece band Cloudberry from Frankfurt. They've been quite good. Good voice, nice melodies and all. But I have to say, the studio recordings they've got on their MySpace are more enjoyable than their live performance was. But if you wanna check them out, you could [...]

I spoke about this band over a year ago. The review was for a song of theirs called 'Ett', and I more or less compared it to something Explosions In The Sky were capable of doing in their sleep. Looking back it was a little unfair because it is now quite obvious that Ef are actually a prospect to saviour. The evidence; well there is this absolute beauty from 'Give Me beauty...Or Give Me Death'

imagem em decoymusic Onde irão as pequenas pombas brancas, o que pretenderão encontrar? Nascem de uma palavra, no céu, com cores de fim de tarde, com uma mancha, com um sol escondido e imaginário, com umas nuvens que engolem uma montanha. Qual é o significado, o que pretende transmitir? Que sentimentos, puros ou não, envolvem a imagem? De quem é a imagem, porquê a imagem? Quem são os EF , quem são, quem são?... o que são ? ... E é num final de tarde ou no início de uma [...]
Despite the ridiculous, pretentious title, Ef's debut full-length "Give me beauty... or give me death!" is actually quite good. I didn't really have high expectations since I found their earlier demo material to be lacking, but I have to admit that they really pulled it together. The playing is much more solid and the arrangements are tight and really flow nicely, exactly the way good post-rock should. Perhaps they listened to my citicism that "less is more" because the busy math-rock riffs I disliked in the past are gone. Regardless of where the inspiration came from, it's a marked improvement.
