Review: Karmella's Game - The Art Of Distraction
Posted on 5 April 2008 | No Comments
Another disc that has been in my large stack of “stuff to review” is The Art Of Distraction From the Baltimore-based group Karmella’s Game. They play fun and bouncy synth-driven keyboard rock a la Reggie or Zolof but with fewer big rock tendencies. A little like what I’d imagine Sarge might sound like with James Dewees pounding the keys or perhaps a female-fronted Get Up Kids circa Something To Write Home About. Karmella’s Game doesn’t do anything groundbreaking on The Art Of Distraction, but the album is pretty fun and entertaining even for a jaded old fool like myself; even though the keyboards are (at times) cheesy and overdone.Think of it this way, if Darth Vader ever had a little sister, Karmella’s Game would be the perfect band to play her sweet sixteen party. Synth-heavy emo-dance-rock.
