Description
This Charlotte, NC band features members of Calabi Yau, Hair Supply and many many others. I really can't explain this record that well but here goes nothing...
I wanna say it is a noise record but if you give it enough time then you will find some great weird hooks. The band is keys, guitar and drums. Essentially one might say they are an electronic band but there is a lot more than that. The guitarist really bends the rule of what you should be doing while the drums are off in a different planet. At times there is an Afro-beat thing going and even a little less often but sometimes there is a Beastie Boys vibe. It seems impossible but I hear. I think mainly the post-punk BB albums and some of the more difficult beats.
Basically disregard everything I said and check this band out. If you want to give your mind workouts or put it through musical sudoku, then by my guest.
Though my shitty webstore doesn't help you believe this. The cover illustration is phenomenal and was drawn by DAN SMITH.
