Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2015-06-22
Angular dissonant noise synth/guitar post punk electroclash sound. Takes me right back to 2003 when labels like Troubleman Unlimited and bands like Numbers, Les Savy Fav, Erase Errata, Flying Luttenbachers,The Locust, Glass Candy's synth sense ruled the earth. Noise synth, harsh, pounding sensibilities. Not a blast out like say lightning bolt, more like James Chance on bad meth.

1) (6:14) buzzing bass urgent distorto dissonance pounding
2) (3:40) rockin harder
3) (2:26) more song like almost accessible rock
4)* (7:58) "why they hide the bodies under my garage" primo evolving noise rock with the title repeated over and over, definitely that 2003 feel
5) (0:30) brief punky filler
6) (6:40) weird outlier track, slow swaying near psyche w sitar, quick false ending.
