Christian Samuel - Shallow Bursts (2012)


9.0

/Shoegazetronica, Indie dance, Electro-indie, Alternative pop, Electronic pop, Noise rock/

Comment: this batch of 10 notches does start off with psych-tinged guitar rolling which soon will be replaced and making a halt on electronic thudding and more massive, shoegaze-ish washes of guitars. Some moments on it are filled in with highly acute noise forays (Blip), and epic yet dreamy orchestrations (Latex Skin). In a nutshell, the release is full of intense washes of electronica and treated and amplified guitars. The project can be compared with the likes of Ulrich Schnauss, and the old peers like My Bloody Valentine, and Chapterhouse.
