WORK (work, work)
Ghostly International
September 2011
WORK (work, work) is a grunge electronic album that presents a mood unlike their exploratory rock EP released back in 2007 called Nostalgia.The album is passionate and obviously floats in a direction towards something weighted. The 10 track album has simple titles but clear abstract structures. “Bendin” works in a deconstructive manner with beats slashing through an ambient safari. All the way through the album is a haze of vocal continuity with beats that can’t help but pull you deep in. The shoe-gaze approach to the electronic album lights a torch of emotion and their heavy story easily translates from beginning to end.

Listen to this: during your moments of deep, deep contemplation.
