Pinback
This, their first album, is a meditation
on calmness and kind of circling rhythms and melodies. It feels
almost like one giant round of "Row Row Row Row Your Boat
," as the rhythm section kind of tumbles over itself, vocals
dip in and out and layer on top of each other and everything
just kind of takes on this pastoral feel of like watching a
forest grow. It’s not incredibly engaging music, but it is engrossing
in its hypnotic pulsation. It feels very organic and articulate
in its stand offish math rockiness, but like an organism growing
on a rock, not screaming in your face. I’ve always found this
to be a good late night headphone album that, because there
isn’t much of a line from track to track, allows you to kind
of float on an even cloud of lovely background music. |
