Pop-structured guitar-heavy songs that mix buzzy dissonance and bright hooks.
Bio / Background
The third full length from this long standing
Massachusetts indie rock group. This time acheiving a more fluid and sometimes atmospheric sound. But never fear, the songs are still constructed from stacked odd-ball chords and tones that allow melodic glimmers and hooks to escape.
Recorded in many short bursts of activity over almost 2 years of late nights at the storied Slaughterhouse Studios (Hadley & Westhampton, MA). Mastered at Peerless Mastering Studios in Newtonville, MA.
"The Mitchells are another local outfit that's stayed the course for [over] a decade, although in the Mitchells' case the course is an angle-filled zigzag into maze land. Since their cassette debut in 1994, the guitar/bass/drums/vocals group has gotten more and more scientific, experimenting with just how discordant you can make a pop song without stripping it of its catchiness. Their guitar and bass parts duel in gentlemanly fashion, parrying and lunging, sometimes joining forces for the chorus.
↓ more ↓The band outlasted its heroes Polvo and Archers of Loaf, and has honed a truly original sound."
-Daily Hampshire Gazzette (Northampton, MA)
