Intuit
As the front man for Menomena, Brent Knopf
makes great sounding, big music. Ramona Falls is his solo outlet
to explore his inner singer songwriter, making great sounding
smaller music. Ramona Falls strips out most of the bleeps and
bloops and layered bombast, employing acoustic guitars, strings,
piano and his trademark gnarly-produced percussion sounds. I
could see this and a Jeremy Enigk solo record going head to
head for one's affection, though there's always something thoroughly
modern sounding about this album despite it not being in a modern
style. Odd, but true.
