Bleep

Comparisons to Volcano! could be made with the fervent dynamism of Deerhoof or Black Dice, especially with bass/electronics man Mark Cartwright's real-life samples, Melodies are stretched to and beyond breaking point, Aaron With's guitar shifts between a ragged, feverish dissonance and bright spaciousness What first sounds chaotic and unplanned reveals itself on repeated listening as meticulously structured: rhythms melt into something different; splenetic episodes give way to passages of hymnal calm which in turn are shattered into stuttering noises pulled back in by insistent drumming. The lead singer has a classic voice like Black Francis.
