A little review...
They were described somewhere as being the loudest band in New York. Though looking at other noise bands and really any other band who play really loud, these guys definitely top them and sound like the loudest band ever...
Their sound is immaculate. It’s a harsh, dense ocean of sexual desire and plummeting heretic madness. There is a reverberated 60s surf pop guitar that plays the role of a daunting robot monster inside a bad dream that continuously chases the listener down with each turn. There are new wave drum machines that remind us we can boogie our way out of this. There’s the assaulting synthesizers that keep anxiety at the forefront and the heart rate on overdrive. With these, there’s plenty of distorted noise rock feedback fed through delays and other effect pedals. And to top it all off, there’s the distrusting, haunted vocals that harrowingly linger through the whistling, New York winter night.
They have a very unique sound and I have a difficult time comparing them to other bands. For me, they definitely stand out.
They have more albums, which are all pretty good, and plenty more great songs, which are also quite good. Personally, my favourite album is Worship, which is their 3rd album. It’s more loud-quiet focus, which I dig, and it brings out their sound a bit. I found Worship on vinyl in ’15 when I was in a small town’s record store while driving through New Jersey and Pennsylvania and so I had to snag it. I also own Exploding head.
