The Daily Brothers - The Dream is Dead (TBR05) - The 40 minute album titled, The Dream is Dead, is a lean, melodic, rocking record distilling what is best about the previous DBs recordings into one masterful full length. Written and recorded in fertile bursts from April through December 2011, the DBs pared down their sometimes ornate productions to focus on electric guitars and organ to provide the foundation for the rocking pop they have produced. First single "There She Sits" is an unabashed pop song in the classic Chris Daily sense. Its strong vocal melody delivers the melancholy tale of an everyday working woman. "Deja Vu" is one of the fuzziest blasts the DBs have ever put down. Jeff's guitar-centric tune's inspiration comes from R.E.M.'s Peter Buck  at his most aggro while Chris' vocalizing hasn't been pushed this hard in the studio ever [see also "Too Many Hats"]. Surprises on this record include Keegan's trippy vocal highlight "Hey I'm Alive" and a wonderful organ lead instrumental composed and performed by brother Matt, "Behold, New Behemoth!" (also known as "Matt's Song").This tape is the real deal - not to be missed!
