We’re in love with The Middle East– and don’t mind saying so. They’re the kind of people you’d like to invite to a nice candlelit party, under some low hanging trees. In 2009, they moved us all with their delicately intricate folk tunes, The Darkest Side and Blood. I Want That You Are Always Happy is their latest installment of musical splendor. Land of The Bloody Unknown and Black Death 1349 are extraordinary gems on the bands debut album. While not every track will impress you unreservedly, the band’s vocal harmonies will please you every time. Hedonism is rife throughout I Want That You Are Always Happy; it’s a pleasure-seeking journey.
