And whilst it might not be the kind of music to cure your hangover so much as cause it from all the drinking and dancing, the name matches the themes and sounds pretty well.<\/p>\n<p>Following on from the duo\u2019s \u2018Sweetest Treasure\u2019 EP, the debut album is more of the same driving synths and anthemic vocals that made you like them in the first place. In this case, it\u2019s very hard to see how you could possibly have too much of a good thing. Tracks like \u2018The Bride\u2019, which is sandwiched between two tracks from the aforementioned EP are just simply fantastic, building up sombre beats beneath a layer of synth like a warped wedding march. The themes of \u2018Healing Music\u2019 are obvious from the lyrics \u2013 going through bad times and coming out alive at the end, healed.<\/p>\n<p>Zebra & Snake introduce us to another animal in \u2018White Shark\u2019, providing us with a rarer quiet moment on the album. Topio\u2019s strong, masculine vocals take the forefront ahead of shimmering tambourine taps as he sings \u201cWe had no choice\u201d with a mournful ache. But like much of the album, the song is a process, as it develops an almost tropical beat in the last minute. This is no ordinary pop album. \u2018Sickness\u2019, the penultimate track on \u2018Healing Music\u2019, is tender and presents a fragile relationship, as Topio sings \u201cYou have a sickness we can\u2019t see\u201d over backing \u201coohs\u201d. But it\u2019s immediately followed up by the driving, pulsating title track, ending the album on a strangely twisted dark high. There\u2019s something eerily sensuous about the line \u201cI can see you \/ You can\u2019t see me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Through all its highs and lows, \u2018Healing Music\u2019 will make you feel better. And that\u2019s as good an excuse as any to listen to it.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #13260d;font-family: arial\"><span style=\"color: #13260d;font-family: arial\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.zebraandsnake.com\">Website<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So this is just a good song, a good music video and a good vibe all around.
