Whilst I dunno if these guys are technically a "supergroup" per-se, I can most definitely express my surprise just how much I revisited their debut album throughout the year. It's noisy, strange yet just indubitably enjoyable to take in a sitting- I get that engrossing feelings similar to watching a particularly interesting set of cloud patterns or a deep space documentary. Besides that killer album cover, it also has an undeniable near-but-not-quite-dance pop sensibility on cuts like the movin' n groovin' 'The Future Of History' or the sinuous, Bowie-esque 'Chameleon Paint'. Little diversions like that really add up to a sense of replayability for me...a twisted but intriguing tapestry with blistering energy to spare for a cold, listless day.



New release today
