Upon my first listen of Summer in the Storm Cellar, spring was just starting to show itself from behind winter. Snow was melting at a rapid pace, birds were beginning to fly back from their vacation to Mexico, and the blue of the sky was finally starting to push away the clouds. Season might seem irrelevant to some, but I have gotten in the habit of listening to music based on scenery and mood, among other factors.
It may seem a bit cliche, but the only proper way that I could describe Summer in the Storm Cellar is sunshine to a rainy day. This album puts a twist on the thought of rain as being dismal, and speaks of it as a pass to play hide and seek, splash in puddles and enjoy youth in general. With these happy songs that speak of love, vacation and someone pretty, melancholy songs about virginity, a strange city with warped streets and conversations are well placed and give the album a great mix of ups and downs.
Favorite songs: Pretty 2, Rainy Day, Sunbrella
My rating: 8.8/10
