She & Him - Volume Two

Review by David Renshaw

She & Him treat what could be needless and indulgent with care and soul. Volume Two will surprise and charm in equal measure. Here’s to Volume Three, Four, Five and beyond.»

she and him release their sophomore album, 'volume two' on double six / domino. written by zooey deschanel (she) and produced by m ward (him), 'volume two' is the follow up to the duo's critically acclaimed debut, 'volume one'. the album includes eleven original tracks and two covers - 'ridin' in my car' by nrbq and skeeter davis' 'gonna get along without you now'. described by zooey as a 'feel-good album,' 'volume two' is bolstered by rich harmonies, sweet-as-sugar melodies and brill building choruses. from sweeping opener 'thieves' and first single 'in the sun' (featuring guest vocals by tilly and the wall), to the tempo and mood shifts of 'home' and the vocals-only, hymn-like closer 'if you can't sleep,' 'volume two' shimmers from start to finish.
