Reviewed 2009-04-07
Indie-Rock with great droney wall-of-sound guitars, monotoneish vocals. Some interesting rhythms with elements of post-punk and post-rock. Reminds me a little of Interpol in spots, also heard hints of tortoise’s more straight-ahead stuff. The real Abe Vigoda is indeed dead, but these guys are certainly alive and kicking.

*1) Nice layered guitars
**2) Syncopated guitars over odd time signature (Reminds me of tortoise), opens up after the 1 min mark. Rocks out at the end, with feedback bleeding into the next track.
3) Vocal musings over guitar feedback
4) Simple repeating staccato rhythm with low-key vocals and intermittent wall-of-sound guitars.
*5) Layered guitars over odd time-signature rhythm. Nice noisy guitars.
