Review:

Powerful, piano-driven rock has always been my soft spot. Keane has a high play count in my library. Entice is totally different. The sound is distinct (some say it reminds them of Muse—-they’re wrong), and every song is a new nuance of their varied talents. The rhythmic piano and clapping that begin ‘Cold Case’ could be hip-hop, but they merely lead into a fierce ballad with bitter lyrics and forcefully despondent riffs.

Switch to ‘Fragile Instincts’ and we’ve got a playfully clicking rhythm section, mingling with seductive, unscrupulous lyrics about “self-control running out.” Or perhaps you’d prefer the sunny energy of ‘Get a Hold of Yourself,’ where bouncy piano keys and scratchy chords lend to some serious positivity. You could even try ‘All I Ever Needed,’ and you’d get an excellent rock track filled with raw-edged vocals and semi-broken guitar chords. The halting quality is unexpected but makes for a great (if slightly emo) sound. This lack of predictability combined with those vivid lyrics garners the guys the interest they deserve.
