Whilst we may sound nothing like any of these bands on the current EP, the following are/were the cause of many a needle wearing out on ye olde phonogramme device:
My Bloody Valentine, Cocteau Twins, Severed Heads, The Smiths, Boards of Canada, Cabaret Voltaire, Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard, Macha Loves Bedhead (you guessed it, a collaboration between Macha and Bedhead), Joy Division, Slowdive, A.R. Kane, Brian Eno (in most of his incarnations), Talk Talk, Stereolab, Duritti Column, The Smiths, Calla....................more as my memory returns.
What have we been listening to this week? Some of the below for starters.
Glassacre is a delayed conversation between it's collective members. A kind of handing over and giving in of the constituent elements in the hope that something larger will form. The sometimes skewed pop of their first ep, "Slow Attack" , is perhaps a misleading introduction to the process that belay it - something between an exquisite corpse and frankensteins bride.
The collective will grow and shrink and the music will morph and paint with other colours. Rather than a band, this is the opportunity to be unrestrained in play and an exercise in distillation.
