This is one of those records you don't think about for awhile, but it pops up and you're in love again. You know those? Everybody's got those , right?
This debut EP is an excellent exercise in counterpoint. Her delicate voice vs. shrill guitar and feedback. His loud and off key voice vs. her fragile and thin bass tone. Drums to the front and on top of everything. There's a good amount going on in here for a simple standard set up three piece.
The first track, Summer & Longer, has made it onto more mix tapes than I can count. The idea of mixtapes is kind of what sparked the idea for this blog. Sharing not mixes though but full records. As we all listen/hear in entirely different ways, with different agendas in our pursuits of whatever it is that drives us to listen. I hope to discuss these records with you to understand better what you hear or how you listen.
Enjoy:
