scoundrel, Nov 07, 2005

The debut EP from The Postal Service, SUCH GREAT HEIGHTS, shows little correlation with Tamborello's glitchy main project, Dntel. Instead, it goes for poppy electronica, and with that, it's eminently successful. The title song is gloriously catchy; it's not surprising that it was a moderate crossover hit. "There's Never Enough Time" is more mellow and introspective, but still has an irrepressible catchiness that's hinted at by quiet woodwinds in the background. And it's a strange day when rock musicians cover electronic musicians, but that's what we have here. The folksy, acoustic Iron and Wine version of "Such Great Heights" is the more successful of the two, but that might be a matter of source material.
