Untitled Freak Shares Birthday

Ali Genevich’s name is one that has definitely appeared on these pages with acts like Retail Drugs, but at the moment, she’s focused on her solo project, Untitled Freak. When I listened to the latest single, the intimate nature of the song really pulled me inside; the overlapping vocal recordings provide this weirdly textural moment that becomes wildly disorienting as the track speeds to its close. The slow core nature reminds me of the ornate indie rock by acts of the late 90s, such as Bedhead, where the snare offers a march while the notes swirl and dance behind. The 7 Circles EP is out on March 13th, so sample another preview below.

Warped Pop from Soft Fangs

January 14, 2016 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I’ve always loved singer-songwriter tunes, but I hold a special place in my heart for the sort that seems to take on the oddity of the world, distorting the genre into something much different. Names like Coma Cinema and Liam Betson come to mind most recently, and now I’m ready to add Soft Fangs to that list. Of course, the warped aspect is reserved for the opening choruswhile a pop explosion fills outthe space that follows, closing the track towards the end. His new album The Light will be out on March 18th via Disposable America and Exploding in Sound Records.
