Song of the Day
This song is off The Clientele's debut album Suburban Light and is one of my favorites. It also happens to be the only video of theirs I was able to locate on any of the video sharing sites, so the choices were limited to say the least. No worries though, if you are unfamiliar with the Clientele this is a solid example of their sound. Hushed vocals and melodic melodies often conjure up the imagery of that moment in the day when the sun just sets below the horizon blanketing everything in a violet hue (perfect for that long walk home following a busy day at work). I wish I could claim to have come up with that analogy, however the title of their second (and fantastic) album is "The Violet Hour" and I am pretty certain this is what they were referring to. The Clientele are based out of London and have put out three proper albums, the most recent Strange Geometry (2005) to critically acclaimed reviews.
