Rainy days were made for melancholic, textured, and gorgeously conceived albums like I Am Kloot's self-titled disc. Leaping ahead of the mellow folk-rock of the band's debut, NATURAL HISTORY, this follow-up not only expands the group's sonic palette, it raises the bar on the overall quality of songwriting and performance. Alt-country shuffle ("Untitled #1"), heavy psychedelic rock ("Life in a Day"), dark jazzy noir ("A Strange Arrangement of Colour"), and ghostly ballads of self-reckoning ("Mermaids") are only a few of the styles wrapped in I Am Kloot's sophisticated guitar/bass/drums arrangements.

Any release this aurally striking would merit notice, but it is John Bramwell's songwriting that truly distinguishes the album. Introspective, unrelentingly melodic, and full of profound observation and detail, Bramwell's compositions immediately capture attention, whether via haunting folk ("Here for the World") or REVOLVER-esque pop ("3 Feet Tall"). Although Bramwell builds the band's sound on familiar ground (Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, Joy Division, and the Verve are all touchstones), the intelligence, subtlety, and beauty here make I AM KLOOT an album to own, and its namesake a band to watch.
