On Love you To Pieces 2, they use a voice modulation which certainly makes for an interesting and effective listen. There’s an excellent two-fold effect with this album, it’s incredibly listenable throughout and also very danceable (if that’s your thing), in fact, you cannot help but foot tap along with it.
