The Raven & The Writing Desk- Some Get Started
by Tim Wenger
The Raven and The Writing Desk. Possibly the best band name in Denver, and seemingly the perfect fit for the intellectual dark-pop that the group creates. The new EP, Some Get Started, spares nothing on production value. The sound is clean, the vocals sitting right in the front of the pocket. Always ambient, never dragging, the EP is a very cohesive listen all the way through.
Julia LiBassi brings the pop with light, textured vocals guiding the songs through intimate lyrics. The instrumentation is often distorted, and provides the dark ambience that signifies the group’s sound. While not necessarily the music you want to listen to on the drive to work, this EP is the perfect mood setter for just about any other time of day- preferably a transition from day into night.
