Yasu Cub Shares Elevator Video

Those of us looking for sounds that would be traditionally described as slow-core might want to check out Japans Yasu Cub. They’ve just released their Elevator EP, and the title track gets the video treatment, featuring the falling snows of Tokyo. Aside from the pacing, there’s some really nuanced moments that really hit me smack in the face as I was listening through, like the crispness of the guitars that ring out carefully. I loved how the song seemed to also circle back on itself in spots, with layers lapping over one another ornately, allowing the song to feel like its bending and coiling up…held together by the heavy vocal notes in the center of the mix. If you’re digging, then be sure to check out the whole Elevator EP.

Angular Post Rock from TV Ghost

TVGHOST2_Greg_The_MayorListening to this new track from TV Ghost, I’m reminded of what I always expected Interpol to become.  Haunting vocal performances haunt the track, and the guitars cut in and out of the forefront of the song, often lurking back into a cave of distortion.  There’s this driving tension that holds the whole song together; it almost seems to have this beautiful insanity wrapped tightly beneath a blanket of crashing cymbals.   The fact that the song sprawls over five minutes long only adds to the feeling of impending doom, which, oddly enough, you’ll find yourself enjoying. Embrace it when the band release Disconnect on September 3rd via In the Red Records.
