Violets Are Red, Roses Are Blue And Dichotomy

Description

The 2nd album from French-American globe-trotter and 1000-concert veteran, Forest Pooky! "Violets Are Red, Roses Are Blue And Dichotomy" is Forest Pooky's second album, released a good ten years after his first, not counting numerous detours, cover albums, EPs, and split singles. It clearly showcases his pop influences with a range of tracks that melodically reference The Beach Boys or The Beatles, while carrying the rhythmic energy of a Rancid or Hot Water Music. His writing style, sometimes satirical, sometimes naive, is recognizable in the lyrics, occasionally humorously revealing the songwriter's gentle rage. Forest Pooky took his time to make "Violets Are Red, Roses Are Blue And Dichotomy" an album in his own image—touching, funny, sometimes moving, often energetic, liberating perhaps, always joyful. A little teenage energy in a "maturity album"? Dichotomy, as we said!
