Comment: first
of all, this 7-track issue comes out from the US-based imprint
Vulpiano Records and contains a couple of long-running compositions
(for instance,
Resonanz, and
Erinnerung reach the mark
of 20-minute,
Adaptieren even more, clocking in at a
31-minute). Secondly, Vulpiano Records is a home record for some
albums by the France-based Natural Snow Buildings, one of the most
outstanding artists within the experimental folk/post-folk/New Weird
movement. Galaxie Depression does have some common threads with
Aldebaran,
The Night Country, and
The Alpha Centauri
due to its minimally changing approach through long progressions
while being imbued with spatial instrumental incantations. In true,
Lately Kind Of Yeah`s music runs in the vein of (post-)rock music,
that`s the main difference. Although it says something there are up
many additional elements either. The artist likes to improvise on the
guitar by cranking up the volume and crafting intriguing
zig-zag-alike patterns and crackling effects as if playing it through
a broken amplifier on the instrument. The instrumental incantations
are interspersed with enchantingly iterative cycles, wide guitar bows
and even ear-deafening outbursts. By listening to
Resonanz it
is an example of eargasmic music. All the titles are in German and
referencing to the nature of a certain track. In a word, there are up
fabulous 95 minutes.
