Indie-pop group He Is We begin their 'Skip To The Good Part' EP ironically with their weakest track. The different colors of the distinctive vocal tones of Owl City and Rachel Taylor merge together as the first track commences choruses in a unique style accompanied by low-volume instrumentation and clapping hands in a manner that treads that line between acceptable levels of camp into a cheese inducing row of pink tents.‘Our July In The Rain’ however, the second track on their ‘Skip to the Good Part’ EP, boasts a different appeal, its melancholy female vocal accompanied by a soft and simple piano melody may have been repeated many times before (Evanescence’s ‘My Immortal’ for instance) but not without reason; the dual wielding assault of melancholy often works a charm on the heartstrings of listeners, and while the track makes a good effort and replicating this desired effect, it lacks the oomph that is needed to bring power into the otherwise delicate poetry of the lyrics.
