The Sugarplastic
The Sugarplastic - Autumn All The Time
The Sugarplastic - The Harvestman
It confuses that The Sugarplastic don't receive more notoriety than they do. I think the front man, Ben Eshbach, deliberately tries to remain insconspicuous. He hates performing live and I get the impression from interviews I've read that to him, fame is obnoxious. They get compared to XTC which I guess I kind of get. Only they do what XTC was trying to do better than XTC did it.
These two tracks are from the newest album Will. "Autumn All The Time" is more like an ambient guitar riff than a song. "The Harvestman" is like a giant crescendo that ends with a nice little harp bit.
