The Hidden Cameras
Awoo

The first Hidden Cameras album on Canada's Arts & Crafts Records is a bit of a disapointment. The majority of songs are mediocre, lacking any aspect that will really stick with the listener. Their signature orchestral folkish lounge pop is still there and maybe weirder than ever, but only really stands strong in tracks like "Fee Fie" and "Wandering," which see the Hidden Cameras dropping their tempo and their wierdness for something more traditional and lovely.

standout tracks: "Oh Lord" and "Revolutions"
