At other points they slip back into impossibly fragile moments of quiet - a simple bassline or a rattle of snare the only sound amid a dark sea of silence. caroline know exactly the right balance between restraint and release. These songs are expansive and emotive pieces, their rich palette drawing on a mixture of choral singing, Midwestern emo and O'Malley and Llewellyn's roots in Appalachian folk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Sometimes things sound much better when there's empty space,\" says Llewellyn. \"Sometimes you might populate [a song] with too many things and forget that an element on its own is enough.\" Elsewhere on the record the band have employed a collage-like technique, combining snippets of lo-fi recordings from a myriad of different locations - a barn in France, the members' bedrooms and living rooms, the atmospheric swimming pool in which they also filmed sublime live sessions for `Dark blue' and `Skydiving onto the library roof' - with more traditional group sessions at the Total Refreshment Centre and their studio in Peckham.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe growth that began as a scrappy guitar band above a pub many years ago is still continuing. caroline's astounding debut album is merely the first step.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCaroline by Caroline\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark Blue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Morning (Red)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesperately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIwr\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMessen #7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine (Eavesdropping)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHurtle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkydiving Onto the Library Roof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZilch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"3","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50558103945512,"sku":"19140201502","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/4032085-2799149.jpg?v=1763982601","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/caroline-caroline-cd-19140201502","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
