Big Echo. The Morning Benders. Alternative 2010.

On this latest album, California's The Morning Benders step up their studio production and shoot for a a new direction with their music. Read full review. Big Echo takes a page from Pet Sounds by allowing the production to shine on its own, highlighting the studio embellishments but never shifting focus away from the bands own hooks. The Morning Benders have already found a handful. Here's hoping they continue down the path illustrated on Big Echo's gorgeous oil-painted album cover: into the unsure seas, and away from the relative safety of stable Big Echo, a playlist by The Morning Benders from desktop or your mobile Big Echo. The second studio full-length from The Morning Benders, released March 89th, 2010 on Rough Trade records. Pitchforks Larry Fitzmaurice said: The album is a homecoming of sorts, as it finds the Morning Benders correcting their PacNW indie pop identity crisis in favor of a more coastal, kaleidoscopic California haze.
