Album Review: fun. - Aim & Ignite

From the opening moments of fun.'s 'Aim & Ignite' the bands warmth and charm is nearly instant. Opener 'Be Calm' could be considered as a "victorian pop song"; strings and brass instruments play alongside the bands swooning vocals.

'All the Pretty Girls' sees the bands summery and vibrant style continue with Nate Ruess' vocals standing out, whilst the string arrangements complement him brilliantly. 'I Wanna Be the One' jogs along in a similar yet more laid back fashion.
