Big Lonely have released their second album titled "Close Your Eyes, Keep Talking." This album is an improvement on their sound from the previous album as this one should take the band further. The band has a good sound and the album is pretty decent here as well. When looking at the recording of this album, this album has been recorded pretty decently but the instrumentation is on average on par with other bands. Now onto the lyrics and vocals, the lyrics are pretty decent and they tell the story the band is trying to tell you while having well sung, clean vocals here. If you are looking for a single for this album, give the song "Dirty Clock" your attention as this is the best song on the album and it gives you a sense of how the album is. Big Lonely have taken a step here and its hopefully going to help the band. This album is pretty decent and has a feel that we think you should give a listen to. Hopefully this band keeps it up and plays lots of shows to get more people to know about them. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.

Big Lonely - Short Stories With Recurring Characters

1. Poseidon
2. JJ-13
3. Goody Two Shoes
4. Elliot Hopper's Ghost

Big Lonely have released their debut EP titled "Short Stories With Recurring Characters." This album shows that these guys are doing a sort of indie rock and surf rock kind of thing on here. The album has a pretty decent sound on it and they give you a big tinny sound with the guitars. These guys have gotten a pretty good sound with the recording of this album and they can  play adequately on these four songs. The only thing about this album is that it sounds like every other band out there at this time. They have nothing really distinct about their music, which makes them fall into the background. A song to listen to on this album would be "Elliot Hopper's Ghost" as it has a bit more of a happy feel with the guitars and gives you a decent idea of the other three songs. Overall, the band needs to do something or add to the sound to make it stand out more, but they are on the right track with sound and playing , look into them.
