Experimental trio from Houston takes your head to some new places. Excellent voice, only showcased on #1. Some anxious moments on other tracks. Psychedelia too. **1) spacey drones & minimal ambience, singer gets upset as cacaphony threatens, angels prevail! calm reigns 2) picked figure is overlaid with harmonics 3) dense cross rhythms, simple lyrics, wind down *4) chimes, anxiety, shaman visits other world (bardo?), battles evil ones 5) strumming, song w/ crescendo, muted guitar squals, gets loud with frippertronics Popcorn | ||
