Dark bedroom shoegaze. Madeline Johnston (aka Sister Grotto) of Denver, with some contributions from Tucker Theodore. Decidedly lo-fi, slow, and bleak, with skeletal electronic beats and heavily distorted vocals. The sound is thick and droning, but it tends to marinate in one mood rather than aim for big moments. RIYL Nothing, Cocteau Twins, early His Name Is Alive, Emma Ruth Rundle, Grouper. Favorites 2, 3. No FCCs detected.

1. (2:06)—Instrumental. Soft pattering guitars.
2. *(8:17)—Slow, muffled beat. Deep guitar. This one reminds me a lot of Nothing.
3. *(6:13)—Even slower. Swirling, mellow, lighter, no real low end. Long backmasked ending.
4. (10:29)—Vocal drones. Beat enters at three minutes. Psychedelic. No words.
