Spoombung Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 Hi Guys Here's the new album promo for my band, Prescott. Hope you enjoy it! [media]http://youtu.be/RqMR2t-5F48[/media] PS. I wish I could get Basschatters along to our gigs but they won't come...for some reason, despite lots of bass action Quote
Bloodaxe Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 I like that... sort of Brand X meets National Health. One of these days I'll catch you lot. Promise. Quote

Beer of the Bass Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 [quote name='Bloodaxe' timestamp='1400171122' post='2451443'] I like that... sort of Brand X meets National Health. [/quote] Yes, it's odd that the reviews so far haven't mentioned things like National Health when guessing at the influences. I feel like I can hear much more of that sort of thing (National Health, perhaps the riffier Hugh-Hopper era Soft Machine or touches of Henry Cow) in the music than I can the more conventional US jazz/fusion influences that the reviewers like to mention. I'm enjoying the album - it has a really pleasing purposeful/minimalist quality about it, no superfluous noodling at all. Which I suppose is almost a post-punk aesthetic... Quote
