Ida - Will You Find Me | Album Review

While 90s rock is known for the volume-pushing bands from Seattle, Boston, Chicago, and other parts around the world, a loose movement of quiet and introspective artists rallied (quietly) around sparse arrangements, hushed vocals, and an appreciation for traditional to 60s folk. Ida covers most of that ground and more on their fourth album, 2000's Will You Find Me. Thanks to a wide range of guest musicians and a major label budget, the band incorporates electric piano, moog, wurlitzer, viola, and a host of other instruments to fill out the nooks and crannies of their deliberate sound. When at their best, the foursome use the three vocals to perfection, crafting haunting and beautiful sound scapes. But on the flip-side, some of the less fussed-over tracks sound bare in comparison, or tracks meander when they should be more concise.   Songs in this Episode: Intro - Shrug 21:24 - Down on Your Back 26:19 - Turn Me On 32:29 - Encantada 40:18 - Shotgun 48:09 - Man in Mind Outro - The Radiator   Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon.
