Product Description
CD Description
How many disastrous love affairs can one boy have? If thesesongs are drawn from experience, it's a wonder Hefner's Darren Hayman hasn't checked into a monastery. THE FIDELITY WARS, the band's second full-length, catalogs the minutiae of disintegrating relationships-all petty jealousy, perfume, andcigarettes. With lyrics torn straight from Hayman's tear-stained diary, this could have been a futile exercise in self-pity. Thankfully, the boy has a knack for great tunes. What's the odd broken heart if you have songs as fine as "The Weight of the Stars" and the insanely catchy "I Took Her Love for Granted"?
The band wraps Hayman's anguished vignettes in simple but effective arrangements. The basic guitar, bass, and drums are augmented by tasteful dashes of pedal steel,piano, and brass. There's even an incongruous bout of hip-hop scratching on "I Love Only You". Unlike so many of his contemporaries, Hayman is not afraid to let go and sing from the heart. This really sets Hefner apart from the pack and makes THE FIDELITY WARS a perfect choice for the angst-ridden teenager hiding within us all.
