2002, Deep Elm
Complicated and urgent, Camber's sound comes from those daring hollows of hope and elation that surprise us in the darkest, most desperate moments. It's those bubbles of peace and clarity that feel fresh and unreal...and these fertile grounds feed Camber's brilliant songwriting, still frustrated and intense. The band moves dynamically through the rock medium with a bass that purrs, guitars that glow and drums that roar, but with a fine pop sensibility. Encased in aggressive rock and melodic start-stops, the music builds up to an almost-frenzy and then calms down with a sad caress. We all breathe like this sometimes. Focused, achingly pretty and tortured, Wake Up and Be Happy thinks and feels and moves. (Deep Elm)
