Brass - "Look On The Bright Side" LP
"Look on the Bright Side doubles down on the band's trajectory as BRASS delivers their most fully realized work yet. The addition of new members Zach Mouallem on guitar and Kennedy Pawluk on bass (two-thirds of Edmonton psych-rockers Dead Fibres), alongside guitarist Tristan Milne, drummer Rory Troughton, and Motz, take BRASS from a trio to a five piece. Not only do the extra bodies make the music harder, louder, and tighter, but they help highlight the band's instrumental dexterity and diverse musical palette. BRASS has never shied from playing with their sound — the first track on For Everyone, "Coral," is an electric, piano-driven instrumental — but on Look on the Bright Side, the band edges their classic rowdy levity with a moodiness as they wrestle with finding clarity in the bleak state of the world."
