Camera Thief – And So It Begins

Camera Thief are back with an unreal emotional output within a surreal floating atmosphere. The new release of the Philadelphia based band is feelable at al levels. What starts as a fragile and vulnerable tune at first, evolves into a self-confident energetic driver, which is mainly done through the vocals and the amount of drive transmitted through the backing instruments. While this is done in a lightweight fashion, the tune never gets pushy or demanding. How does this work, you ask? I have absoluetly no idea. But it absolutely does.

I always love the emotional honesty of these guys. Giftwrapped in rock, and presented in a well-balanced mix of truth, emotion, and passion, most of their songs implemented this signature styled element that instantly clicks with the listener. It’s a certain “been there, done that” vibe that changes shape and form even within a single song like “And So It Begins”, and therefore this tune is one of many songs that sound like the essence of life. This, guys, is nothing less than the soundtrack of life.
