AFFILIATES
It's a rare thing to be able to listen to something deemed as easy listening, and yet feel a bowel voidingly disturbing presence. Radiohead making love to Sigur Rós is the best way to describe the sensation that is listening to this album, but The B Of The Bang sound nothing like either of the above artists. It's easy enough to pick out of the odd influence, but the over all sound is something very special. Just when you think you have the album sussed 'Dolores' kicks in, a (sort of) straight forward track with amusing and intensionally sloppy lyrics. 'Desire Lines' then throws you off the trail even further. If anyone has ever heard 'Diana' by Comus, imagine that, but replace the terrifying psychedelic sound with a soothing one. Anyone who can find a single flaw with Beginning. Middle. End. deserves to be taken away by the men in white coats, this album is nothing short of a goddamn triumph.
