heres the road records review of 'Plumb the Depths'
'the return of this rather excellent post rock band [one man band should be] on say what you mean records. the band released an ep in 2007 [cut the engines raise the sails] also on the same label. mainman brian walsh is this time joined by drummer / percussionist dror zur. this is a much more intense listen compared to the very laid back sounds of the debut ep. its a collection of totally fuzzy post rock and slowcore sounds comparable at times to the meeting of slint and codeine. the album also has some beautifully rambling dirty three like passages with lots of looping intricate guitar action going on over almost jazz like brushed drum sounds. the album comes in a lovely screenprinted recycled card sleeve with printer inner poster. november 2009'
