2009, Domino Recording Co
The third album from our dynamic duo Carim Clasmann and Galia Durant is called The Camel’s Back, because it was nearly the straw that broke it.
In it you will find an array of monsters, ants and heartbreak, philosophy and folly all wrapped up in glorious production, odd noises and a heightened sense of purpose. There is a real sense of triumph over adversity and whisper it…maturity… about proceedings.
Album opener “I Want That” showcases this development, bursting with enthusiasm and brassy squawks while “The Monster Song” is a hugely catchy pop number, life affirming and vast - if Psapp was a Sunday afternoon film this would be the moment when the sun came out and everyone danced in glorious Technicolor.
The band has a song called “Somewhere There Is A Record Of Our Actions”. This sentiment may be true, but it is doubtful that all of them would be as beautiful and insightful as the one left by Psapp.
