Album Review

Mostly very pretty, instrumental acoustic guitar songs that make me think of Cul De Sac, and, to a lesser extent, Low, Do Make Say Think, even Jim O’Rourke’s Happy Days, you know, that kind of monotonous, dissonant guitar playing. Apparently, this band has done at least one soundtrack. Some jazz influences, maybe in places just a touch of alt.country (I mean only slightly). This album is quite varied and very, very good. Songs are mostly normal length. Seattle artists.
Rec: 7, 8, 11
1 Dissonant, dark, repetitive
2 Plodding with a bass drum beat
3 Almost like Nels Cline,
4 This makes me think of some of Ed Ka-spel’s mid-period (from Shadow Weaver, etc.) guitar experiments
5 Droney experiments, somewhat like Cindytalk’s more ambient material
6 Song with a beat, more folky
7 Pretty, almost faux-incomplete
8 Beautiful song
9 Sad song in Eb major
10 LONG, 9 minutes, varied, meandering
11 Pretty in a dissonant way, reverb-vocals like, uh, Bauhaus’ 3 Shadows part 1?! Also like Low.
