Human Potential Share The Sightseer
When you work with a historic label such as Dischord, people are going to have expectations, and I’m equally guilty of that, which is why I love Andrew Becker (Medications/Screens) latest Human Potential single. It opens fairly passively, working some deep grooves and bright vocal notes that hang in the air, but just before the 1 minute mark there’s this explosive burst of jagged guitars to match the hanging vocals; it’s something where you can hear Becker’s history, however brief that moment is. The song retreats, settling into the rhythm once again, patiently awaiting the return of rolling drums and sharp riffs…then it rinses and repeats until the close. Definitely a jam I can get behind; Eel Sparkles will be out March 6th via What Delicate Recordings.
