Beirut's five-song EP LON GISLAND works as a nice stop-gap for those anxious for the next full-length from wunderkind songwriter Zach Condon. Condon's penchant for unique instrumentation and world-music accents (particularly klezmer and Balkan brass) is in full flourish on this brief 2007 release, as best revealed on the rousing instrumental "My Family's Role in the World Revolution" and the gorgeous reworking of GULAG ORKESTAR's "Scenic World"-which gets fleshed out with the requisite accordions, ukuleles, and mournful brass, recasting the.
After listening to the album, it is clear some songs on this album represent his feeling of what Long Island should sound like, feel like, and be like. The first realization of Lon Gisland is overall, there is a much brighter and bolder sound. The band that Zach Condon plays with during shows was featured on this recording and the impact is huge. The horns are spectacular, blaring out notes of triumph with a lazy slur to shape the sound. The non-use of electric guitar remains to keep a more intimate feel by using ukuleles and mandolins without any sort of distortion
Lon Gisland features four new tunes and a full band reworking of Gulag's "Scenic World. Exclusive discount for Prime members. Sample this album Artist (Sample). The album is great but the ep has some real standouts that are not on the album. One person found this helpful.
