<p>
Before their latest release, <i>I’m Going Away</i>, <a href="http://www.thefieryfurnaces.com/">The Fiery Furnaces’</a> last record was an over-stuffed 51-track, song spliced and mind numbing live album titled <i>Remember</i>. And before that was 2007’s hodgepodge of fuzzy guitars, psychedelic organs and off-kilter melodies, <i>Widow City</i>. So while the term “experimental” might be played out as a musical descriptor, The Fiery Furnaces hardly went out of their way to do anything near the realm of normal. Until now, that is.</p>
<p>
<span id="more-1851"></span></p>
<p>
The Fiery Furnaces seem to have cooled off on <i>I’m Going Away</i>. Siblings Matthew and Eleanor Friedberger take their Brooklyn via Chicago art-rock outfit to a new level of accessibility by crafting an album that draws most of its inspirations from big 1970’s arena pop rock acts such as Elton John, Paul McCartney &#038; Wings and latter-era Led Zeppelin.</p>
<p>
The first striking difference between <i>I’m Going Away</i> and many of its predecessors is the lack of keyboards and more emphasis on distorted electric guitar. Not to mention Eleanor Friedberger’s vocals occasionally sound like a scatting yet very relaxed Jack White, which is the perfect compliment to either big riffs or dream-like piano lines. All the tracks drift in and out from delicate soul melodies to soaring chorus-lines, save for a few moments of obvious art-rock sabotage in the form of an out-of-tune guitar solo or escalating tempo.</p>
<p>
Opening title track, “I’m Going Away,” is a bass-heavy blues romp that shrinks into a cymbal-tapping chorus section, which lightens the mood for a fleeting few moments. “Even In The Rain” is a big ol’ rock anthem that occasionally comes off as a quirky 2009 reimagining of Led Zeppelin’s “Fool In the Rain.” Matthew Friedberger’s key-changing, sweeping chorus guitar lick briefly offers satisfaction until his jagged tension-filled solo. “Staring At The Steeple,” is a piano and organ-led groover that borrows a modified riff from the Black Sabbath&#8217;s “N.I.B.” Eleanor sings “If I see you tomorrow/ I don’t know what I’ll do/ I’m not gonna cut my hair or run around the block/ I’m not going to drive to Dallas with blurry eyes again,” in the road trip-ready heartbreak ballad &#8220;Drive To Dallas,&#8221; before being interrupted mid-song for a guitar and drum punk rock freak-out.</p>
<p>
The luscious pop melodies alone make <i>I’m Going Away</i>, one of The Fiery Furnaces’ best efforts. Even though all the songs are new and original, the album offers a sense of familiarity and warmth, which is a grand achievement for an art-rock band in 2009.</p>
