[Translated excerpt. Read the full review in French <a href="http://www.indiepoprock.fr/chroniques/albums/kramies/the-wooden-heart-ep/" target="_blank">here</a>]<em> "Built on a base dark and melancholic pop, these six songs enjoy a delectable atmospheric character that is reminiscent of the old inspirations of the genre. On the fly, we instantly think of Mercury Rev, Sparklehorse or Slowdive. Kramies moves in the same folk-rock liberator and vocal register, with one exception. Because unlike the three references cited above, his compositions are delicately enamelled electronic textures, handling the organic aspect of his work with shadowy and enigmatic feelings ( The Beginning,  Upon The Northern Isles ). Psychedelic light points on the pieces where Lytle is involved ( Sea Otter Cottage, Clocks Were All Broken</em><em> ) also recall that wander in a dreamlike music involves some risk taking." </em>
