The Weepies latest album Hideaway, hot off the iTunes press, is finally meeting my long awaiting ears. Overall, I found the album to be a satisfying continuation of the amazing songwriting and vocal harmonies that were seen in Say I Am You. My only qualm with the album is the three song lull at the 4-6 slots. The songs here were not solid or lively enough for my idea of what the ‘meat’ section of an album should contain. I felt that the album really started to take shape from track 7 on where I found many of my favorite songs of the disc. I also should note that these are only my first impressions of the overall flow of the album, and that the songs individually exceeded my expectations.
