...Kill your middle class indecision / Now is not the time for liberal thought,” The third track on the album, “Waiting for the 7.18,” mimics the pace of the first with another slow-paced intro—accented by glockenspiel and Okereke—leading into an epic chorus. “The Prayer” opens with a steady, stomp beat over a low, Gregorian hum, and showcases electronic ambience and Okereke’s playfully arrogant lyrics. This interesting blend of sounds is, strangely enough, the album?...
...campaign trail took him to a local Schützenfest (marksmen's festival), an annual three-day beer-gulping celebration in which the local shooting club chooses a new king of marksmen. As is customary, about 70 marksmen dressed up in green uniforms, and a brass band with glockenspiel and drums accompanied them on a little parade through the city.

You can hear it in Heidi's Theme, where a delicate xylophone arpeggio rises above the earthier glockenspiel, perhaps symbolizing Worthington's character Joe. But it's not all so harmonious. For Rough Sex, Decoder Ring provide a jarring guitar riff to accompany one of Heidi's teenage tumbles. It lasts barely three minutes. Elsewhere in Somersault, the frisson between image and sound is pure cinema. "Cate...
...post-production." In the concluding installment, I'll explain what to do at a photo shoot in Back Bay, Boston, and how our sound technician Brook became known as "helmet-head" to hundreds of grade school children. Until then, sing a ditty. Be proud. Your moment may come soon, glockenspiel...
