Let me save you some time: This is Fanfarlo's only good song. They have other songs, but most of them suck, and the other one that doesn't (The Walls Are Coming Down) sounds so much like it's trying so hard to be Beirut that it sucks by default. The album generally suffers from this, which should be obvious on Arcade Fire aping I'm A Pilot. I'm sure before you even got to this word you already thought, "This sounds like Arcade Fire..."

This is really the only song that does. The rest of the album sounds like it's trapped in some twilight realm between Arcade Fire and Beirut (and some people say Clap Your Hands Say Yeah but I've managed to avoid that band since their first largely unlistenable album) where all the fun, energy, and everything unique and interesting about those bands has been bizarrely sucked into the abyss never to be seen again. So easy, it is, to stop paying attention to Fanfarlo's Reservoir, that I... uh... well I don't even have anything to say about it. It is bland, and uninspired.

However, I'm A Pilot is a ridiculously awesome song. Thanks for that, Fanfarlo, but not really because it's only so good because you're trying so hard to be Arcade Fire.
