[aftersun] - Goodbye (2011)



/Shoegaze, Post-punk, Goth rock, Psychedelic, Alternative rock, Space rock, Covers/

Comment: [aftersun] seems to be a combo from Brooklyn, New York which makes a mesmerizing sound loving heavily to loan from a mix of cosmic shoegaze, proto-shoegaze, and the British post-punk/gothic punk music. Indeed, this 2-track issue bases on atmospheric, astonishingly overdriving guitars, rigid bass undercurrents and the same way stomping drums. More detailly, it resembles of such bands as The Chameleons, Swervedriver, Moose, The Comsat Angels, and the French post-punk legend Asylum Party whose track Old Dreams Are Not Innocent is covered herein. An amazing trip.
