False Face
I Tried to Think Like Gaboury b/w Less Ambitious Man
(Self Released)
Kingston, ON

From the less ambitious man that is Aaron Levin:
Kingston’s nihilist pop trio returns with another fantastic challenge to the art-rock consortium. Granulized beds of static carry their symphonic pop to unabridged heights, leaving the atonal guitar tomfoolery behind to deliver insane levels of cascading noise. They’ve once again skirted the unwieldily threat of identifiable genre and stayed true to their adjective hyperbole. Kingston, man!

The Old Line is dense; a desolate bus-ride on the midnight express to nowhere, culminating in the heaviest, trance-inducing psychedelic yogi-chant ever documented. Gown, the solo project of Thurston Moore collaborator Andrew McGregor (now residing in Nova Scotia), is not your paltry foray into distorted minimalism. Having cut the fabric of space-time and emerged as its own cosmic entity, Gown self-assimilates the reverberations of our universe and rebroadcasts them as soundtracks to our imagination’s self-deprecated autobiography. All the reverb-soaked, red-line meanderings underneath Andrew’s atonal murmurs resonate with the basement of our psyche. It’s challenging and absolutely impressive how deep The Old Line penetrates. I’ve spent three days with this record and I’m not yet ready for the world.
