You can read the full review HERE but here are a few snippets:
From “Independent Clauses”:
“Logan Lynn is an interesting artist. He falls solidly within electro-pop, but the overall tone is darker than average, with sexual innuendo practically screaming at you within every song…The sound is full and thick, with lots of synth (the good kind) layered under his vocals…
‘Write It On My Left Arm’ breaks up the rhythm Lynn builds up for himself with faster tempo and some great percussion. It’s one of the standout songs of the album, with great energy and snarky lyrics like, ‘When the going gets tough / The tough quit going to work.’ As the album progresses, you’ll hear little word plays and witty turns of expression that add a lot of personality to the songs…
Logan Lynn closes out with ‘The Dotted Line,’ an off-the-wall change to his sound that aptly wraps up everything else. It’s more hip-hop or club than anything before it, with a section of harmonic conflict that only reaches resolution when he enters on vocals. Lyrics are a bit dark, ending with things like, ‘No one to hold you / no one to sign / no one to sign on the dotted line / …. you’ll have to save yourself this time.’…
From Pillar to Post makes for an entertaining listen. Logan Lynn blends his electronic styling perfectly with his vocals, and has created an album that is very clean, adding in nice touches here and there like his verbal wordplay.”
You can check out the full review HERE but there’s a bit of the post below to tide you over just below:
“The best thing about reviewing music is getting advance releases like Logan Lynn’s From Pillar to Post in the mail. On paper, Lynn reads like many other up and coming artists out there. “Bucking the system”. “Embracing his DIY roots”. “Lynn’s just making music he wants to make”. It would be quite easy to dismiss him. It’s a good thing he really is doing all of these quotes and more…
His musical approach is a unique blend of lyrics that lift from life-lessons & emotional experiences, utilizing a minimalist mix of pulsating electronic beats. From Pillar to Post sounds like the soundtrack to the day-to-day – be it commuting to work or texting your significant other. Lynn’s music will play well in the background of your life – in a clothing store, or as a backdrop to an evening latte at your local bean house. His sound is a bit more commercial than the likes of M83 and Ulrich Schanuss, and he flirts with the sounds of Ladytron and Metric to a certain extent.
What’s really refreshing about Lynn – is his very organized website. On it you’ll find affordable purchase options for From Pillar to Post. Everybody who purchases his music (be it on CD, LP or as a digital download) also gets a four volume remix EP entitled Blood In The Water for free. Visitors can stream the entire From Pillar to Post album before purchasing, and even take an mp3 of ‘Write It On My Left Arm (Ariake REMIX)’ as a free song to keep.
Released worldwide through The Dandy Warhol’s Beat The World Records on November 24th, you can get in on an online pre-release of the album from Lynn’s website now. Check it out – you’ll be hearing more from this fellow… I can guarantee it.”
