The Butterflies Of Love are Jeffrey and Daniel Greene, two brothers from Connecticut. Listening to this, The Butterflies Of Love's very fine debut album, it is safe to assume that the Greenes chose to soundtrack their upbringing in America's 47th most interesting state with copious quantities of the Modern Lovers, Galaxie 500, REM, American Music Club and The Go-Betweens--with a particular emphasis on the solo albums of former Go-Between Robert Forster (the Greenes, who presumably speak with American accents, sing in an extraordinarily accurate facsimile of Forster's deadpan Brisbane drawl). As might be expected, given the above formative influences, The Butterflies Of Love's songs deal more or less exclusively with the vagaries of love and the losing of it, and seek to further the air of poetic despond by sousing everything liberally in alcohol. Which, while it results in songs as good as "Love May Be Possible" and "Leaving When I'm Done Drinking", is no problem at all. --Andrew Mueller
