Comment:

There's no shortage of grim wit and kitchen-sink drama in the work of I Am Kloot, elevated into the realms of the sublime by finessed arrangements and the often spectral vocals of frontman/songwriter John Bramwell — the slow-rolling "Because" from 2001 debut album Natural History strikes a beautifully-judged balance between the ordinary and the ethereal, the bleak and the transcendent. "Mermaids", a standout on second album I Am Kloot (2003) continues in that vein, with its percussion of rattled chains and lyrical vision of doomed beauty, while "Life in a Day" sees the band exploring rougher, more turbulent waters. Light and shadows dapple the lesser heard tracks of I Am Kloot's Deep Cuts.
