Editorial Reviews

2014 release, the second album from the Electronic Rock duo from Saratoga Springs, New York. Formed in 2007, Phantogram is Josh Carter (vocals, guitars) and Sarah Barthel (vocals, keyboards). The band name was partially inspired by an optical illusion called a phantogram, in which two-dimensional images appear to be three-dimensional. They described their sound as "street beat, psych pop". According to Josh, their music has "lots of rhythms, swirling guitars, spacey keyboards, echoes and airy vocals." Phantogram has played and toured with bands including: The xx, Ra Ra Riot, M83, Metric, Beach House, Zero 7, Yeasayer and countless others.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Sound
    Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2014

    I LOVE this album, in so many ways and for so many reasons. Before I ordered it, saw Phantogram perform on an episode of Audience channel's "Guitar Sessions". I was intrigued by their descriptions of the way they mixed in beats from hip hop and rap, and when you listen carefully you can really pick up on that even though the vibe is more rock. The sound and lyrics are very original, in a world of carbon-copy gimmie-a-fast-hit songs. The most amazing thing I have discovered only recently is the depth and versatility of the sound. If you turn the bass all the way up, you have one style and sound in the songs, but if you put the bass on half and turn the treble all the way up, it is a completely different experience. And I don't mean in the ordinary way in which songs sound better or worse with "fuller" or "thinner" sound when you adjust bass and treble. I'm saying they are completely different songs almost, and both sound wonderful! Now THAT is an accomplishment worth noting. In this listeners opinion, Phantogram is the real thing: a band creating high art in a world that sometimes seems to have sold its artistic soul. Thank you, Phantogram. I definitely want more!

    Great snyths and beats. Excellent vocals and addictive hooks. Every track on this album is good. I usually listen to this cd while I am drawing and it really gets my creative juices going. If you like Metric, the XX, and Glitch Mob you may like this album alot. But don't be fooled this bad has a style all the own, this two person band does it all, the play instruments and they both sing and sing really good. The album kicks off with the haunting Nothing but Trouble to the even more eerie and intense Black Out Days to the very upbeat sounding and pulse pounding Fall in Love, to the saddeing Howl at the Moon and deep meaning Futuristic Casket. This album is worth the money in spades. Who says you need huge production values and a million hands in the cookie jar to make a good album? These two get it and they do it better than most. A must buy and a must own.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Hitting their Stride
    Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2014

    I first became aware of Phantogram in 2009 when they played a small music club in St. Louis called "The Firebird". The duo had energetic vocals and live performance. The lead singer reminded me of a cross between Louise Brooks and Crissy Hind. Her vocal range is great, and she has a stage presence and sincerity lacking in many of her contemporaries. The whole audience was charmed. Flash forward to 2014, and the band has a newer, lusher and slicker album called "Voices" and they are playing much larger venues like the "The Pageant" in St. Louis. In spite of this, they have kept their warm stage presence and ability to engage an audience. The writing is just as good-even better! Though a bit slicker. I enjoy that Josh Carter is doing more vocals in this new release. See them in concert if they are near your city or town. Buy this album if you like Sonic Youth, AIR, or old school Pretenders, Concrete Blonde, Cocteau Twins or even Sterolab.

    I first heard them when Mouthful of Diamonds was getting rotation on 89.3 the current and could not get the song out of my head. I started to dig a bit more into what they had and heard the live version of Don't Move in The Current studios and was indeed hooked!
    Now with Voices the production quality and song writing have coalesced into exactly where they needed to be with this release.
    I particularly love Howling at the Moon, Black Out Days, Nothing But Trouble and the first one I heard from it Fall in Love.
    I am thoroughly impressed with all of the songs on this recording and am looking forward to what they do in the future.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Be Ready for Phantogram!
    Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2014

    In case you didn't know, Phantogram has collaborated with rap giant, Big Boi. After hearing some of the tracks from this CD, you will understand why. This album starts out with the heavy hitting "Nothing But Trouble." Swooning vocals over synth heavy beats equals Phantograms successful formula. The percussion in tracks such as "Howling at the Moon" and "Blackout Days" will cause your head to bob before you know it. Some of these tracks could be heard on the self-titled EP released late last year. The sound of these songs fits cohesively with the new tracks. Highlights include "Nothing But Trouble," "Blackout Days," "Fall in Love," and "Howling at the Moon."

    With their second full length album, Phantogram delivers! For starters, Phantogram mixes electronic elements of music with indie pop. Songs like Fall in Love, Black Out Days, and Never Going Home is representative of their work. However, their songs tend to sound so alike (The Day You Died and Bad Dreams). Other tracks sound just plain ugly (Nothing But Trouble and I Don't Blame You) though this is a subjective opinion so others fans may love it. Josh Carter is featured more in this record than in their previous works, which is great as the songs are more fleshed out. Overall, their newest record gives fans what they want a better and more matured band. If you are new to Phantogram, you can get this album or Eyelid Movies as both are great in their own respect.

    One thing to note: UNFORTUNATELY, if you ended up getting their recent EP simply titled Phantogram - EP, you will find all those songs in this record. It sucks and its really not worth repaying for this album as the EP highlights their best songs of this album.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great band, great album, the hottest female vocalist around...
    Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2014

    I know people that are not so much into their music, but think the singer is hot. Her presence certainly adds to the craft, but her voice is taking you to places. Enchanting. Strongest tracks are "Black Out Days", "Celebrating Nothing" and the retro 70s disco-soul infused track "Fall in love". Those are the hits. The rest is greatness nevertheless. I think it's their best output so far, even though "Eyelid Movies" was a killer album. But this one is very profound and deep and everytime I listen to it I think "The Village". Makes me want to breathe NYC air. To sum it up: me and my girlfriend we are in love with Sarah Barthel. :)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Still, music’s best kept secret..
    Reviewed in Canada on February 13, 2018

    Though Eyelid Movies is still an amazingly solid album on its own, Voices showcases Phantogram at their very best. With tracks that jump in and out of different genres, Josh, the band’s beat maker, blends percussion reminiscent of J Dilla, Madlib, and John Bonham. These brilliant instrumentals on their own could satisfy many, but it’s Sarah’s sublime vocals that truly are the icing on the cake. As much as I love the band’s debut album, Voices adds a layer of growth, maturity, and a willingness to push the boundaries of genre-fusion. Seeing them live is where this is most evident as this is where they are truly in the pocket. That being said, if you get a chance to see them, please do as I guarantee it will turn you into a superfan. Until then, Voices is the next best thing as every single track is rock solid.

    As a vinyl collector, this is a solid pressing. Presented in a gatefold sleeve, and on two chunky records, it looks and sounds wonderful. Unfortunately my album arrived damaged however this was quickly fixed through Amazon’s stellar customer service in providing me with a replacement. I’d still recommend buying this on wax if you own a turntable as it’s an album that is best heard on an analog medium.

    Dopo l'EP "Nightlife" e l'album "Eyelid Movies" questa uscita conferma quanto di buono fatto nei precedenti lavori, ma se devo fare un appunto al duo Barthel-Carter è quello di non aver osato un po' di più, magari sforzandosi di differenziarsi proprio da quanto già fatto, cercando qualche collaborazione esterna per dare un senso di maggiore variabilità dei brani.
