In the beginning there was Sonic Youth, and My Bloody Valentine learned from them and it was good. Then a gajillion bands learned from them, like The Swirlies, Swervedriver, Swirl, and all bands with the word Swir* in them. This band sounds like a genetic hybrid of them all: Noise Dream/Pop galore, bendy dissonant loud guitars, pounding drums, quiet loud contrasts, desperate if off-key male/female vocals. No doubt this band gets Sonic Youth comparisons all the time. For fans of Daydream Nation, Helium, 18th Dye, et al. 1) (3:40) dreamy epic female shoegaze, minor toned 2) FCC 3) (3:17) sonic youth dissonance, driving, kim gordan moaning/singing 4(3:01) bendy loud guitar/quiet chord contrasts, fem vocs 5) (2:41) driving pounding sonic youthism with thurston moore male vocs 6) (3:36) quieter, triplet waltzing, with girl vocs 7) (3:32) male vocs, big bassy soaring feel 8) (5:18) big swaying waltzing feel, swallowed fem vocs 9) (3:19) slower bendy, fem vocals 10) (4:29) acoustic guit intro, then a big epic dream rock wash | ||
