Comment: I
guess anyone of us has at least once brooded about which structural and aesthetic
aspects of contemporary indie pop/rock and pop music in general would make
sense enough to seduce new audience to its compartment. Given that an average
modern indie/alternative combo`s album is a little exciting and quite
predictable. By listening to Coma Cinema`s brand new one Posthumous Release I got partly answered to the question. More
profoundly, orchestrated sounds in flux, exquisite electronic shades and
penumbras which in turn used to dynamically magnify and invigorate, there are
represented noisy guitar torrents variegated with melodic Americana
incantations where the male vocal timbre is supported by female deliveries.
However, this would not be enough to get accomplished because motley needs additional
factor melted into an organic whole. This could be either catchy lead motive or
mesmerizing harmony progression in the right place or a bunch of proper
relationships between the elements to conjure up a synergistic sonic fist.
Fortunately Mat Cothran caught it. This 11-track issue involves no notches
which could somehow fall short. Furthermore, there are up a handful of
compositions of being fair earworms (Satan
Made a Mansion, White Trash VHS, Bailey Jay, Burn a Church, Lee (Columbine
High Harmony). Of course, he has practised music much enough to get the
recent result properly. Undoubtedly his former four issues (three albums plus
one EP) were also good ones but this issue obliges.
