Title: An interesting crosswiring of ideas
Review: Take the fuzz/drone/feedback sound of, say, Flying Saucer Attack and the dub/loop/space aspects of, say, Seefeel circa "Quique" or "Polyfusia", and what do you get? Well...something like this release by Main. Definitely working toward a spacy/ambient direction, but employing crunchy and spiky loops of guitar distortion, feedback, and noise, "Motion Pool" is a pretty satisfying collection of sometimes-edgy drone psychedelia with a heavy dub angle to it. Vocals drift in and out, like they're being sung in the next room, and the only percussives one finds are the random metal noise or other noise-burst. Like the liner notes say, it's "Drumless space". Definitely a 'recommend' for those who like things along the line of My Bloody Valentine, or either of the above-mentioned groups.
