Am-Boy, Horrible Oracle Blessedness [Attack 9, 2007]

Am-Boy’s first two albums failed to impress me all that much; Forrest Wolf seemed to be operating in the shadow of his Wobblyhead labelmates (Casino Versus Japan, Signaldrift, Freescha) - all of whom are, of course, operating in the overarching shadow cast by the Hexagon Sun. But where "Floridian" and "Clayton’s Hideout" were somewhat boring and mediocre, this latest album is consistently remarkable; I would have left out a couple tracks (the LP clocks in at over 70 minutes), but overall, this is warm lo-fi electronic music at its very best - playful and nostalgic.

Great stuff. Definitely has the Freescha/CVJ sound going on, but it's its own take on it, not some sort of carbon copy. report abuse vote down vote up Votes: +0 Write comment Email Website Title Comment smaller \| bigger Subscribe via email (Registered users only) Powered by Azrul's Jom Comment for Joomla!
