(Indie Rock, Baroque Pop)
Owen Pallett is a one man genius. I love his work. Heartland is his latest release, and the first under his own name. Prior records were released under the name Final Fantasy, based off the popular Japanese video game series (which is what originally drew me to his work. With Heartland he used a lot of violin arrangements melded together through digital bleeps, and carried along with his voice. Definitely a nice album for anyone interested in softer music.
Probably the most popular song on the album, Lewis Takes Off His Shirt, is the first track to get it's own music video. Personally, I didn't find the video that entertaining. It was just off in my opinion. Symbolism? Maybe? Idk, there is a lot of hidden themes it was trying to convey. Orange soda, stabbing yourself, hockey mask, blowing dust, stacking soap... Anyway, check it out. Great song.
