  BBC - Rock & Alt Review - Turin Brakes, Ether Song
Ether song is a deep album that does require listening and doesn't reward as much as Optimist did - but it does have slightly more edge and it's good that Turin Brakes are going somewhere and not just repeating their previous stuff.
My opinion yes, fantastic array of songs, acoustic and electric with piano etc. Heading ina new direction still brings tears to the eyes, singles are not as memorable but the album as a whole is just as good.
Ether song is a brilliant album by one of our finest artists.

Ether Song is certainly a departure, and it is all down to the production.
All the songs they had written were in some way about an indefinable spiritualism that unites all of us.
The Optimist was filled with a confidence in what they were doing, but with Ether Song the reins have been relinquished, at least in part, to a "big-time" producer in Hoffer.

Ether Song is the follow up to Turin Brakes' critically acclaimed The Optimist.
Ether song is a reasonablylengthy album - 15 songs, which means it's great value for money.
What a shame that Ether Song just doesn't live up the promise of its creators' talent; sure, Long Distance, Stone Thrown and Pain Killer are great - but the rest of the album is full of half-songs and filler, or songs that start strongly but don't develop.

However if it had a flaw, it was that the gentle acoustic setting lacked variety, leaving some songs sounding vaguely monotonous.
Ether Song attempts to address this by bringing in Tony Hoffer, whose previous credits include Air and Beck amongst others.
Whether they can emulate the success of Chris Martin and the boys remains to be seen, but whatever the charts say, this is already one of the releases of the year.

 In Music We Trust - Turin Breaks: Ether Song
When Turin Breaks released their debut, the Optimist L.P, they were accused of single-handily starting the "new acoustic movement", yet after much criticizing about being boring in their "sitting down gigs" the breaks have returned with a second album, determined to prove themselves.
However, when Turin Breaks released "Ether Song" it was clear that they had compromised their sound to try and be cool.
Ether Song is a great album in places, but fails to hit the point in others, its title track (hidden after "Rain City") sums up the album, brilliantly against the grain and different yet lacking direction, yet it still manages to be beautiful.

 Turin Brakes ‘Ether Song’
While 2001’s ‘The Optimist LP’ failed to deliver on the promise of their early EPs, Turin Brakes, sophomore album is the sound of Ollie Knights and Gale Paridjanian coming of age.
From the chiming drive of openers ‘Blue Hour’ and ‘Average Man’ to the sheer melodic exuberance of ‘Clear Blue Air’ and current single ‘Pain Killer’, these are songs that in their scale and scope are right up there with peak period U2.
‘Ether Song’ is as uplifting as it is affecting.

Unfortunately, while volume and sound effects were instilled at will, the very essence that made their debut album so loveable, seems to have got lost somewhere in the process.
In spite of its failings, Ether Song does leave you with an underlying admiration for Turin Brakes however; resisting the easy temptation to make a replica of The Optimist is something that definitely counts in their favour.
And on songs like the aforementioned Rain City and Full of Stars, their gamble in opting for a 'bigger' sound nearly pays off.

 * Dusted Reviews - Turin Brakes *
Ether Song though, takes a dramatic turn away from that sound.
As Gale put it, "a lot of the songs were songs which we had written off." Oh, my (on "Pain Killer" we get "My love / Giving me head / Feeling very guilty / Breaking the bread", preceded by "You give me so much love / It blows my brains out".
But whatever the process, Ether Song transformed Turin Brakes from a soothing sound into a big, building sound that, frankly, induces headaches.

And so Ether Song will arrive on the scene on March 3, hot on the heels of the quality single "Pain Killer" but not really promising to blow us away.
In fact, those of you who part with your cash for Ether Song will be buying just another guitar album, one that gets off to a cracking start with "Blue Hour" and "Average Man" but then spirals down to normality.
Ether Song was recorded in three weeks during last summer in California of all place, which seems a little at odds with what Turin Brakes, a down to Earth UK duo, appear to stand for.

With sophomore album Ether Song, however, Turin Brakes has turned to studio as friend, not foe, resulting in an assured strut more akin to the second-wave that Brit-pop comparisons already leveled.
With music like that, it's inevitable that the songs are a bit on the downbeat side; Knight and Paridjanian's songs tend to be focused on love and dissatisfaction, only breaking out for the poignant "Little Brother," which is all about someone ELSE's loneliness.
The songs seem to stay with me all day, and even though I have listened to them many times, they don't seem to get old because there is enough "meat" to them both sonicly and lyricly to pour over for quite some time.

Now, the wait is over at last and Turin Brakes return with the follow up to The Optimist, Ether Song.
Ether Song was recorded over three weeks in Los Angeles in the summer of 2002, and produced by Tony Hoffer (known for his work with Beck, Air, and Supergrass).
Going to California and working with a big-name producer may seem at odds with the popular perception of Turin Brakes, however, they wanted to break away from the “new acoustic” noose and make something more direct and sonically up front.

Knight's vocals still nod toward Jeff Buckley, but, in addition to the patron saint of 21st Century boy singers, there are also shades of Radiohead and Beck.

 The Music Box: Turin Brakes - Ether Song
Both Radiohead and Travis released new albums in 2003, and for the first time since the their respective debuts, both ensembles appeared hesitant to stretch beyond their previous efforts.
Fear not, however, for the duo of Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, known as Turin Brakes, has come out of nowhere to deliver Ether Song, a dark, folk-pop outing that outshines both of its primary influences.
But its combination of bleak emotional outbursts, ethereal ambience, and melodic beauty, not to mention its meritorious convergence of moods both melancholic and mirthful — which often occur simultaneously — makes Turin Brakes this year’s heir apparent to the Jeff Buckley-meets-Nick Drake school of songwriting.

The New Acoustic Movement, which Turin Brakes were born out of or tied into depending on your point of view, is dead and gone.
'Ether Song' is the follow up to 2001's excellent 'The Optimist LP' and it will book Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian's place in the semi big time.
One complaint is that 'Ether Song' is overproduced, too polished and this leads the record dangerously close to the bland.

What has however, is that their acoustic fuzziness has taken on a West Coast cool, which has given them more depth.
Made in LA with Beck/Air producer Tony Hoffer, 'Ether Song' will follow the lead of their debut 'The Optimist' and quietly work its way into people's lives and then refuse to get out.
With the exception of single 'Average Man, it takes time for their takes on day-in day-out to tighten their grip - and you could come away thinking it's an album hung up on creating a mood instead of making a memory.
