65daysofstatic - One Time For All Time JPN Import.rar (69.3 MB) People say 65daysofstatic sound like Mogwai with a bit of truth about enzyte Squarepusher, or Slint played at 78rpm remixed by Aphex Twin, or Godspeed! mixed with M83, or any other number of “insightful” muso.crit.com comparisons. And yeah, they do, insofar as anything sounds like anything else “on drugs,” but it’s a reductive method of description. What 65daysofstatic actually sound like is three men making a fast, wordless, angry and occasionally redemptive noise, part guitar, part drum(machine)s, part piano, part scree, part fuck-knows-what. They’ve built up a ferocious live reputation, adding a live drummer who propels them way beyond expectations of “three guys with laptops playing solitaire,” and turning them into a seriously fucking heavy ROCK proposition. 65daysofstatic is a completely instrumental band, mixing live drums with sampled, offbeat drums to create an Aphex Twin-esque feel from the rhythm section, while keyboards and guitars create more sonic action on the forefront. The keyboard often plays a sparse and simple melody, contrasting with the complex rhythm of the rest of the band. Some songs take a post-rock format, crescendoing throughout the song until reaching a climax and then dying away after that for the outro. However, unlike post-rock, where the climaxes are often the most beautiful sections of the song, the climaxes in 65daysofstatic's music sound almost industrial and gritty. Also worth noting is that tracks 1, 4, and 8 were recorded in one of the band member's homes. These tracks break up the album and don't exceed 2 and a half minutes. Math rock, as the title would suggest, is also a large influence in the band's sound. The time signatures, while not the most complex one will ever see, are still uncommon and create an odd feel about the songs. However, 65daysofstatic will not make the song uncomfortable, as they will revert back to standard 4/4 often. "Another Code Against the Gone" – 1:40 |
