Balancing between shoegaze, dreampop and slowcore, Oakland's There's Talk this time as a trio comprised of Olivia Lee, Young Lee and Kellen Balla, return almost five years after the more folk-oriented, very well received and much promising EP, Tiny Strands.
Even thought the comparisons to the dreamlike brilliance of acts like Chromatics are easy to devise, the darker and more dreamlike direction There's Talk take emerges intuitive and exceptional. Through its excellent musicianship and sharp production the new EP's opening number, Give It Up, exposes the introspective wistfulness in Olivia Lee's songwriting, while projecting ample amounts of warmth and intimacy that anyone could relate to.
