Christian Herald – “In Full Bloom”

by | 16 May 2002

Before recording their latest project, Buckinghamshire-based trio As If… surfed the internet in search of inspiration for song lyrics. To prove it,they have listed the relevant websites under each song .An imaginative concept, with considerable musical variety too-the band’s customary rock and pop sounds, retro loops on Love Is, soulful hornfills and saxophone solos on All Fall Down, and even classical string arrangements for Down To Love and Babel.Com. Listening to this album and others I remain confident that there is a real strength of talent out there in both breadth and depth.
