3 tracks of floating, melodic, etheral beauty done in the way that many English bands (Dif Juz, Slowdive, Durutti Column) have done. Mountain View band that's been around for a few years. While their sound invokes cinematic images - their live shows (as with this EP) include images of Luis Buñuel's "Un Chine Anadlu" and Tod Browning's "Freaks". Overall, some GREAT "chill time" music.
((((1)))) slow, gorgeous Slowdive-ish, drifting, some very excellent guitar & bass action.
(((((2))))) Drum & bass led intro with almost traditional Asian sounding guitars. Somewhere between Durutti Column & Dif Juz.
((((3))) Noodling guitar with slightly funky drums into a wonderful journey of cascading sounding that would be pieces of Coucteau Twins, My Bloody Valentine. Shimmery is the operative word here.
