Norton Disney's new album Less is available NOW on iTunes Music Store

Review:-
Less is the first project by new band, Norton Disney. Inspired by a desire to move away from complex arrangements & electronic sounds, this album is a return to simpler times - not to say that the odd synth doesnt put in an appearance here & there; there is, of course, a place for everything - but mainly the album is a more traditional two guitars, bass, drums, vocals approach.

Dont let that fool you into thinking its all going to sound the same - far from it. Theres as much variety here as you could wish for; from the clunky, recorded-in-a-bedroom sound at the beginning of Weightless the chorus arrives with ear-bending authority. Vanilla Sky is a piano-driven ballad; Listen is a thought-provoking hark back to the love-in days of the 60s; Monday & Chemical Dependence are almost punk songs; Darkness is pure prog rock, and Free Spirit you can make your own mind up on. Lullaby is a slow dreamer which makes you want to play the whole thing over again.

For all its variety, this never sounds like a disparate collection of songs, its a coherent piece from a serious songwriting team. Even in its thrashier moments, melodies still count for everything.
