Title: Shallow spinning
Product review: 2 1/2This is probably the best disc the swirling, effects-heavy group has released, but that does not say much since I really find the group overrated. Production is always a chore, rarely complimenting sonic architecture the greatest moments strive towards, and instead highlighting what weak melodies and techniques are really going on. You just cannot escape a cloying garage-level experimentation with these guys. The key has always been drowning that stuff out with enough noise that somehow it becomes meditative, a hard to find compromise FSA rarely strike in my opinion. One wonders how much better off they would have been completely abandoning any delusions of traditional vocal based rock and concentrated on ambiance alone.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
