Comment: the
first post at RMH at the beginning of 2009 was about an album by
Leafes being released on a Swedish imprint, redstarcommunity. Because
of that it is very understandable to feel delighted being at the
discography of the record label again. And the 12-track issue is
truly worth to spend time with it. Musically it is a strong
miscellany of experimental pop/art pop/post-rock tendencies with
hints at organcore/ambient pop/glo-fi styles where droning organs and
noisy guitars resonate with one another thereof creating flickering
shadowplays and velvety soundscapes. Indeed, the main tone is rather
dark than light though at times some sunbeams come into the room
being hidden behind thick curtains. The result is truly invigorative
and consistent to conceal one's broken soul. The artist is assisted
by other imprint mates who have created remixes for some of the
compositions (more profoundly, Tyrone Miller, Jonassis O'hara, PHerd
Deconstructivists and The Late Virginia Summers).
