   About Risk Relay
Again recording their album completely by themselves, RR have tread a long road, losing a bassist, hiring a handful more, recording the basslines themselves & ultimately taking a few perfectionists' swings at the final product before overcoming the sophomore pitfalls that ultimately inspired Curses Sing. Time hasn't mellowed them instead seemingly encouraging even more complicated rhythms, brutally heavy twists & turns, and antagonistic melodies. Even with new tricks; a smattering of female vocals, atmospheric interludes & more immediate vocals, this is a rumbling percussive call to arms that never hints at a falter.

"Risk Relay is carrying the torch for nutcases with guitars. They mash hoarse, shouted vocals onto spindly guitar lines until the listener is bludgeoned into approval. They relive the glory days of indie noise with their unrelenting tales of neurotic obscurity, producing post-grunge messiness for modern-day amphetamine reptiles." ..Editor's review, Download.com

"...jittery, jarring, and oh-so compelling." ..Pastepunk.com

"Memorable and creative." ..Absolutepunk.net

Mrs.
Gowanus
By (H+) M.S.G.
(from the archives)

Mrs.
Gowanus, the line between us is so fine
What makes people act the way they do?
Mrs.
Gowanus, this bar will be forever ours
Why did you have to leave us so soon?
It couldn’t have been the right time
It couldn’t have been so soon
Mrs.
Gowanus, the lines between us are so fine
What secrets do you hide?
What futures can you tell me?
Looking into the cup you hold
Mrs.
Gowanus, are you really so old,
That you alone know,
When the truth becomes lies,
Through the passage of time?
Mrs.
Gowanus, why are you singing to the stones?
Do they tell you what you need to know?
Our seats are so far away
Mrs.
Gowanus, the line between us is so fine
What makes people act the way they do?
Mrs.
Gowanus, are we really losing you?
