Zookeeper, the recent project of ex–Mineral and Gloria Record singer Chris Simpson, travels the path everyone expects. Sure, this time it’s folk and no emo progrock like in Gloria Record but still the ingredients remain the same. “trumpets” bears simple minor chords melodies caressing the cranking and whiny trademark vocals of Simpson while “snow in berlin” emphasizes country influences and surprises with its swinging rhythm which however clashes the crybaby vocals. All in all both songs boils down to the same predictable pathetic tune. The single bears a saddened picture of an artist completely caged by the categories (i.e. “emo”) he once created. [phillip]
