-Descripcion Original:

Strange & Beautiful [Audio CD] Aqualung Aqualung is Matt Hales, a Brit popster whose ethereal, plangently lovely stateside debut is all knotted up in the sounds of now. Cribbing from Keane, Coldplay, Radiohead, and the Beatles, Hales is a U.K. sensation who staves off staleness by way of his exceptional talent. (Volkswagen dropped the title track into one of its uber-hip European ads in 2002, sparking a whos-the-artist frenzy not seen since the company revived the catalog of Nick Drake.) When the sun sets around me/my daydreams confound me/and the long night surrounds me, he whimpers compellingly on You Turn Me Round, a brief ache of a song. Though we feel for him heres an artist with a gift for getting empathy in a chokehold we cant help hoping his long, melodic night meanders endlessly. Fans of The O.C. and Garden State soundtracks should dip in. And dont worry: all Jethro Tull ties end at his handle, meant to evoke the strange and beautiful murkiness of the music. --Tammy La Gorce
