Clap Your Hands Say Yeah- The Tourist (CD)
''The Tourist'' nods to Alec Ounsworth's musical heroes--a group that includes artists such as John Cale, Robert Wyatt, Tom Waits and Nick Cave. However, this album also shows a natural progression from previous records. ''Better Off'' and ''The Vanity Of Trying'' are lush, keyboard-augmented songs, while ''A Chance To Cure'' and ''Ambulance Chaser'' are rhythmically askew, and the sighing ''Loose Ends'' is delicate, acoustic-based folk-rock.
Tracklist:
- The Pilot
- A Chance To Cure
- Down (Is Where I Want To Be)
- Unfolding Above Celibate Moon (Los Angeles Nursery Rhyme)
- Better Off
- Fireproof
- The Vanity Of Trying
- Loose Ends
- Ambulance Chaser
- Visiting Hours
