Animal Sounds
‘Ennui’
Self-released
You could label Animal
Sounds’ style as “indie rock,” but it’s a bit of a misnomer that sells the
maturity of the music short. “Ennui” is a fun, but understated record, with the
local five-piece band (featuring guitarist Shawn Brogan of Jon Lewis Band)
riding the brake and not getting nuts on the straightaways. It’s an eight-cut
joyride that really takes off after some buildup at track four, “Kid Danke
Schon.”
