Bipolar Gentlemen - Uplift
Review by Heather Markel
Bipolar Gentlemen's album Uplift is a powerful and dynamic work that showcases the band's impressive musicianship and creativity. With a blend of rock, pop, and electronic elements, the album takes listeners on a journey through a range of emotions and experiences.
From the opening track "Runaway" to the closing song "Believe," Uplift is full of catchy hooks, memorable melodies, and engaging lyrics. The album's production is polished and professional, with each instrument and vocal part given ample space to shine.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Better Days," which features a driving beat, soaring vocals, and an uplifting message about overcoming adversity. "Breathe" is another standout, with its dreamy synths and introspective lyrics.

- "Most of the gear that we use is homemade and DIY with heavy focus on metal springs and clanging things. Piezo elements are used as pick ups for amplification. Car springs are used in a similar way that one would use traditional cymbals. Screen door springs produce a wide range of multi-tonal scrapes, bangs and crashes. The garage door spring has the deepest growl of the bunch. The LoBro uses a screen door spring that is moderately heavy stretched across a piece of Brazilian Rosewood. The spring is tuned to A1, the lowest note on the piano and uses a Humbucker pick up. Aluminum dowels and ½ inch electrical, metallic tubing are used as the striker and slide for this instrument. A chorus of cowbells, sheet metal and other found objects round out the percussion along with a traditional drum set. All instrument amplification are DIY, single-ended tube amps."
