House Of Fools

House of Fools combine many elements of retro progressive rock and rock opera, akin to bands like ELO, Queen and The Eagles, with elements of modern indie and pop rock, such as Jimmy Eat World, Bright Eyes and Polyphonic Spree. Catchy hooks are built of tight drumming, sleepy bass lines, rhythmic guitar, accented by the occassional tasty chop or solo, and glossy and varied keyboard elements, all cinched in by perfect vocal arrangements and performances which display experienced use of range, style and technique. The more-than-adept musicianship is carried home by deceptively simple yet convicting and relateable lyrics, which manage to bring a smirk to your face one moment, only to melt it off the next; sarcasm, anguish, humor and hard-earned wisdom all play off each other seamlessly.
