Mccandless – Surprisingly Coherent (2013)




/Post-rock, Indie rock, Alternative rock, Soft rock, Duyster/

Comment: although this handful of pieces starts off like a colourless, mediocre guitar issue the Brussels-based duo embarks on to develop slowly by adding new layers and motives into iterative guitar gears. At times it chimes like a daydreaming combo who has no hurry and obligation to move on somewhere. They just enjoy recent moments and being in creation. One could hear glockenspiel chords to accompany guitars and at Twirls synths will take a lead to conjure up more soft rock-alike milieu, however being intersected with soaring post-rock guitar keys. Ultimately it could be said it is a solid output which deserves its title. The issue is a part of the discography of Higher Living Records.
