Owls
“I’m Surprised…”
Two (Polyvinyl Records)
release date: 3/25/2014
by Mike Delano
Owls are a satisfying throwback to a time when emo rock hadn’t yet evolved into an overly sleek, whiny mess of a movement. Originally on the scene for a brief time in the early 2000s, the group is back after a decade-plus hiatus, and they sound fantastic. Nervous, jittery guitars and endearingly vulnerable vocals all delivered with the confidence and talent necessary to pull this style off, “I’m Surprised…” tells of great things in store on their second album, Two.
