Fans of Evening Star era Fripp, Windy and Carl, AMP, Flying Saucer Attack, My Bloody Valentine sonic embellishments. Guitar duo that creates lush ambient experimental soundscapes with loops, effects and probably lots of Demerol if not LSD. Tracks are radio friendly in length for the most part (2-5 min). 1) slow fade in looping chords feel 2) ambient layers build prettily 3) 1:30, brief 4) pretty loop layers w/ sparkeling chords 5) piano feel in chords 6-7) FSA’ish, lush 8) almost droning 9) chordal, brief 10) a bit noisier, darker 11-12) spacey 13) pretty 14) long ~20 minute track, loopy and spacey 15) strummy, almost “song”-like | ||
