The Polyphonic Spree
Recently I was on a website with links to various unusual and unique online games. One of the games I tried was a point-and-click puzzler which had as a “prize” for finishing it a video from a group called The Polyphonic Spree. Upon completing the game I watched the video and liked it a lot. I went to the group’s website and watched other videos as well as live performances and was hooked. Their sound is complex and defies easy description but to me it reminds me of the optimistic orchestrated rock music from the late 60′s and early 70′s. I ended up getting all the CD’s I could find.
