Chris Robley and His Fear of Heights – Movie Theatre Haiku

  • May 11, 2009

Indie-pop maestro Chris Robley and his supporting band Fear of Heights follow-up their two critically acclaimed albums with Movie Theatre Haiku. The current album captures Robley evolving from fractured folk and dark, psychedelic indie-pop to a more expansive orchestral sound with electronic touches. Here Robley is more confident successfully integrating continual musical and production experimentation with themes of heartache and melancholy. Robley’s talent for intricately layered arrangements fits neatly alongside artists like Neutral Milk Hotel, Elliott Smith and Joseph Arthur.
