Amazon.com Orchestrated pop hasn't been much in vogue since the late '60s when bands such as Love, the Zombies, the Beach Boys, and the Beatles tooled around with instruments usually found in an conservatory. But with his conservative, finely tailored sartorial sense, Eric Matthews hasn't let that stop him from crafting an unusually good piece of retro-pop in the mid-1990s. Once a member of Cardinal with the Moles's Richard Davies, Matthews indulges in the sort of atmospheric pop somewhere between "Good Vibrations" and dry martini lounge music--and without sounding contrived or self-consciously cool. --Rob O'Connor Similar CDs

CD ReviewsA Modern Pop Masterpiece 07/29/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "Not since the days of Arthure Lee and Nick Drake, as there been an album of such lush and beautiful pop music. These are not easy songs. While the melodies are inescapable, they are intricate and the lyrics obscure. But artists such as Love and Elvis Costello have always demanded more of our attention and, more importantly, deserved it. Without any reservations, let me say the same for Mr. Matthews." A very warm sounding album with great songs. 07/16/1998 (5 out of 5 stars) ""It's Heavy In Here" is an original piece of laid-back orchestral pop music. The songs are great, but the production is even better. In contrast to other albums released on Eric's label (Subpop), "It's Heavy" has a very full and warm sound that uses more harpsichords and oboes than distorted electric guitars. Worth getting."
