Ambient April: Day 29

   Hot Venom by WrittenRadio

I see potential and I see squandering. I had really high hopes for Miniature Tigers when I first stumbled across them in 2009. The band was vaguely indie rock but came across much more like steady indie pop with electronic tendencies. They managed to impress me early with the sheer range of sounds in a single track and spot on lyrics. Their latest album, F O R T R E S S, was a bit of a disappointment. For the level of skill and innovation exhibited early on they haven't really pulled through into something amazing. Despite some minor disappointment, their first album did yield some pretty good tracks. This one, Hot Venom, is just what you need to get a taste of the band. Look up more if you like it.
