"Profoundly Imperfect" The Very Most

the Very Most - Spilt, Spilt Milk
I stumbled across this incredible gem by Boise, Idaho's own The Very Most while sifting through my inbox before we left Ohio. They had sent me the email in early June, in my ignorance, I completely missed it. I was intrigued by the name, I appreciated the personal touch of founder Jeremy Jensen, and most of all, I was impressed by the music. They've got a gorgeous grasp of the perfect indie pop sound. "Congratulations Forever" is the album that The Magic Numbers should have released in 2006, rather than their abysmal showing in " [...]

The Very Most | introducing

The Very Most | introducing The Very Most is the brilliant new quartet from Boise Idaho with enough harmonies and sweet folk melodies to swoon away any summer night. Their music is dense, catchy, and has a decidedly un-hip, yet slightly off-kilter, lyrical viewpoint. It's kind of like being the only adult at a little kids' dance party where you get to choose the music, but the kids make you spin them around until everyone's really dizzy! As a computer programmer, a husband with 3 little girls, and a student studying his way to a masters, Jeremy Jensen, is not exactly your [...]

Free and legal MP3 from Ed Laurie (Leonard Cohen meets Jacques Brel, with Spanish guitar)

"Albert" - Ed Laurie Wow. Warm and wondrous neo-folk from a young British singer/songwriter. Listen to the stirring tension in the verse--the song is quiet, but with a restless heartbeat--and then how it resolves in that gorgeous chorus with its shy, unexpected melody. Oh my. For me, this is goosebump material, and I don't say that lightly, or very often. Although he is basically a guy with a guitar, Laurie does not sound like a typical singer/songwriter, both because of his husky baritone, with its air [...]

The Very Most - Mp3hugger

You know the feeling when you leave a warm sunny holiday clime and your arrival back on home turf (literally) is greeted by 10 new ways to display the colour grey? Yep, we've left the cocktails behind us for puddles and grumpy taxi drivers. So why is my grin the size of the Ha'penny Bridge (upside down, in a smiley shape)? Well, one of my favourite new bands has written this rather fabulous new

The Very Most

The Very Most The Very Most play very tiny instruments The Very Most , who say they may be the only indie-pop band from Boise, ID, have just released their second album, Congratulations Forever , generally a collection of very bright, fresh-sounding, sunny songs that are great driving accompaniment. I especially like how Gia Trotter's vocals sweeten "When Not Being Stupid Is Not Enough." The title song is an especially nice bonus track that is 11 minutes long. The Very Most are: founder and songwriter Jeremy Jensen, [...]

The Very Most - Good Fight Fighting

It's been a little while since I've posted some new indie pop on here, so it's time to make up for that in the form of The Very Most. Sounding like they have arrived late from the late 1990s (you know, when Belle & Sebastian were still good), we've got jangly guitars and quaint [...]

The Very Most

the Very Most - Spilt, Spilt Milk
Have you ever been to Idaho? I never have, but I hear good things about it. Lots of trees and lots of open space. But I have one more reason to like it now. A band from Boise called the Very Most. I just recently heard from them and listened to their latest CD and it is absolutely gorgeous. They remind me of The Magic Numbers with their boy - girl harmonies, but the arrangements of their songs are much more complex and dense. Go ahead and take a listen to [...]

The Very Most - Good Fight Fighting

When I think of Teenage Fanclub I think happy thoughts. These same happy thoughts have started to appear of late and it has nothing to do with the Glaswegians. The object of my affections is actually from the other side of the Atlantic, Idaho to be precise. The band are called the Very Most and are driven by the melodic machinations of one Jeremy Jensen. 'Congratulations Forever' is only the
