Opera House - Change In Nature [EP]
 

“Do you like good music?” A rather odd question once asked by Arthur Conley. Surely everyone’s answer to this would be yes I do, Arthur. If the question had been “Do you like mindless drone?” then the only people who would answer yes would probably be ‘Opera House’ fans. If I had to put a tag on them I would call them a poor man’s Turin Breaks. I knew from the start that I wasn’t going to like this EP. I’m not a fan of pop music and I was unhappy to see that the four tracks on ‘Change in Nature’ were all 3 minutes and 35 – 45 seconds, a sure sign of pop on the horizon. On the positive side it is well produced and the drums at the end of ‘Change in Nature’ are quite good.

The main problem I have with ‘Change in Nature’ is its lack of dynamics, the tracks roll along and when you get to the end you struggle to remember anything that’s happened. Luckily ‘Change in Nature’ is only four tracks long, any longer and I think I would really start to hate Johnny Lloyd’s voice. My favourite moment would have to be the guitar effect going on in the background at the end of ‘Criminals’. That and the end, when I can eject the disk.

EVERYONE likes pop music. Some people just don't realise it, or don't like to admit it ; )

With regards Opera House, I kind of wanted to hate the song 'Change in Nature', because the video is annoying, but there is something about it I quite like. I agree that the best bit are the drums at the end.
