What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Ant feeling happy.

I've just been totally distracted and played Miracle Fortress 'Maybe Lately' and not paid any attention to it... Third time lucky then.. This is kind of nice summery pop. The press release compares this to My Bloody Valentine, Animal Collective, the Beach Boys, John Cale and Arcade Fire. I can't here the MBV thing in there but I reckon the others are valid reference points. That's how to write a review when there's distractions in the office, just peep the press release... money for old rope eh! It's not bad at all actually but I'd better not listen to it for a fifth time or I'll be singing it in my sleep. 7"on Rough Trade.

What the label says:

Miracle Fortress is from the brainwaves of Graham Van Pelt, a Montreal-based multi-instrumentalist and vocalist who builds wall of sound pop songs in the tradition of Brian Wilson and Brian Eno.

 

In late 2005, Graham Van Pelt began recording as Miracle Fortress after co-founding the multi-functional art space/venue/studio space, Friendship Cove, with local artist Jack Dylan in Montreal’s Griffintown.  Graham composed, recorded, and mixed the entire Five Roses album himself within a few months; only taking time out to perform as a solo act opening for bands like Love is All, Vic Chestnut, and locals Sunset Rubdown and Islands.

 
Five Roses is an ambitious and engaging record of sprawling pop songs that echo My Bloody Valentine, Animal Collective, the Beach Boys, John Cale and Arcade Fire. Originally from Stratford, Ontario, Graham (age 23) is also a member of Montreal’s Think About Life (Alien8 / What’s Your Rupture).
