Indian Jewelry — Invasive Exotics
Things start off fairly normal with Lesser snake, which links popping sntyh to rather standard rock churning riff, with an almost striped of its flesh dub presences. But the time we get to the second track, Powwow with it’s drunked and plainly wrong sounding whine and stager, you know you’re in for a very different and strange take of guitar music. The track barely staying together, wrong pitch synth slipping and sliding, with bass fluttering, over which slurred vocals are almost choked out.
Come closer finds John carpenter like 80’s soundtrack synth work drag , over which a trusty beat is pounded out, that often wonders off and gets mixed up with guitar noise- added to this we have dreamy and altered due male and female vocals , giving the whole track a very odd mulit coloured melting dream feel. Going south feels like a sludge up and buried in a swamped version of Alex empire, twisted with Dead Kennedy’s like dark surf guitar twists. As the track goes on it becomes more muffled and wrong sounding, vocals melted into guitar discharged and synth wrong-ness. The great thing is it just seems gets even odder and odder, the deeper you get into the album. A real strange and sick puppy of an album, that will have you dancing oddly and wondering just exactly what you are listen to.
Really one of the most plainly different takes and rock and synthesizer music you’re likely to come across. One of this years odd and strange groovy treats. Go now and buy into the cult of Indian Jewellery.
