Miracle Fortress - Five Roses

Graham Van Pelt is another in a long line of incredible artist hailing from Montreal. With his solo project Miracle Fortress, Graham crafts complex pop songs that build and swell with walls of sound lapping at your ears. Much in the same vein of Brian Wilson, he is able to create these wonderfully addicting songs without losing any sense of his artistry.

Ranging from instrumental rock songs like the opener "Whirrs" and the finger snapping/hand clapping filled "Next Train" to the ambient masterpiece "Five Roses", this album tries many different styles and ends up doing them all well.

Overall it may feel a bit chaotic, but that's probably the main reason I enjoy it so much. If you are looking for a challenging pop record that will leave your fingers numb from snapping, give this a shot.
