Ben Birchall : Year of
the Monkey
By Tim Cashmere
13th September 2004
Ben Birchall's 'Year of the
Monkey' is simply a collection of songs that he has written
over the past few years, that his family and mates bugged
him to record and put out. It's simply some good guitar based
pop music.
This six track EP features the new single 'Three Minute Revolution',
the waltzy 'Cold, Tired, Free' and the pretty straightforward
'Empty Bars', amongst some of the smoothest guitar pop you've
heard since Timmy Rogers last picked up a guitar.
As previously mentioned, the six tunes on this EP go back
to 1999, so you're getting a large span of what Birchall is
about when you pick up this disc. It could almost be considered
a best of for a debut release.
