Ice Cream Smoothe

Enon “Daughter In The House Of Fools” – This is a pleasant surprise! For a variety of reasons, not the least of which being the fact that I saw them play a live show in which they butchered their own songs, I had given up on Enon. If I’m being honest, I wasn’t crazy about the addition of the Asian girl to the line up – I liked John Schmersal just fine by himself on vocals. But this proves me wrong, and I’m very glad about that. This song is just fabulous; the melody is top shelf and the arrangement is inspired. All told, it’s exactly what I liked about all of other Enon songs I’ve ever loved. Now I’m fighting the desire to see them live, because I’d hate to see them botch this song the way they stumbled through “Conjugate The Verbs” when I saw them a few years ago. It’d break my heart.
