The Feathermerchants' self-titled, self-released debut shows off their dark, droning, Middle Eastern-inspired pop. Hints of late-'80s/early-'90s alternative bands like the Sundays and the Innocence Mission also flutter about the sweet vocals on "Water and Dreams," while "Ludlow St." and "All Shook Up" recall Throwing Muses' angular, antic song structures. The group stretches its range with the Celtic- and country-tinged "Black Dog Smile" and bouzouki-driven "Runaway," which also features backing vocals by the Moroccan gnawa singer Hassan Hakmoun. Though the album drags slightly in the middle, "The Poet"'s pretty, reflective melody and the brooding album closer, "Strange," round out a strong debut from a distinctive, highly independent band. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
