you know one of those days when the air is crisp somewhere
around 65 degrees, the sky is blue and almost no clouds and you kind of feel
like you should fall in love all over again. you then start to remember any or
several past loves and even though the climate of the day is exactly the same,
it now feels a little different. well that moment of melancholy romance and
elevated level of serotonin rushing thru you, is what Humbert sounds like.
if that's too much for you then here goes. humbert has been compared to :
Jellyfish, The Flaming Lips, The Polyphonic Spree, The Beatles, Weezer,
Badfinger, Cheap Trick,
The Pixies, Elvis Costello, Modest Mouse, Neutral Milk Hotel, Bright Eyes,
Granddaddy, Guided By Voices, Sloan, The Arcade Fire, Electric Light Orchestra,
Broken Social Scene, Wilco, The Fiery Furnaces, Sonic Youth, A.C Newman, The
Coral, Superdrag, Apples In Stereo, Of Montreal, The Decemberists, Rogue Wave,
The Unicorns, Death Cab For Cutie, The Pixies etc........
They have been called 'Beach Boys like Chamber pop' 'Prokofiev on amphetamines'
'Lo-fi bedroom pop' 'What the Beatles would have done after Abbey
Road'...........
However they are not like Maroon 5, not like Jay-Z, not like Nickelback, not
like Incubus, and definitely not like Alicia Keys. in all actuality not like a
lot of things ....
