Tungsten Gruvsten Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 New album (Mirrored) is pretty good - borders on mathrock at times but with Helmet's ex-guitarist it's pretty heavy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allison Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 Not to everybody's taste but I LOVE Mirrored- i think it's way past "pretty good" and heading towards brilliant. The drummer is awesome-he gives some grounding and balls to all the crazy guitar wanking and experimental lyrics,the drums just drive their music through your body and the rest of the sound tweaks your head. I think I read a review of them that said it was body music for brainiacs. The single Atlas is awesome... Totally stoked to see them at Pitchfork-missed them in T.O recently.

Tungsten Gruvsten Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 yeah it was that video that got me going on them -Vocal effects can be a bit overbearing but it's a great tune - real "muscle car engine" drums... I love how high the one cymbal is on the drum kit - bordering on ridiculous. Good shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
