Apartment - Dreamer Evasive

The rapturous reception afforded to Apartment's striking early Fierce Panda singles 'Everyone Says I'm Paranoid' and 'Patience Is Proving', gave way to, well... silence. Anticipation at a high, Apartment took the gamble to go to ground to start work on their debut album. The second part of 2006 witnessed Apartment emerge, live & kicking from the studio & back into the spotlight. 'The Dreamer Evasive' pays back multiples on their gamble, the edgy spectral disco-pop of tracks like "My Brother Chris" and the haunting emotional resonance of songs like 'Pressures' (the next single) and 'Ghost of An Unforgiveable Past' combine flawlessly to make for a sophisticated, sharply tuned debut sure to give a jolt to those who thought they had the band down as Interpol also-rans.
