SMALL BLACK - NEW CHAIN
CD (Compact Disc)
Label: JAGJAGUWAR
Release date: 29/10/2010
Barcode: 0656605217420
Catalog no.: JAGCD0000174
Item ID: 349007
The Brooklyn group have succeeded in melting together locked & popped drum-shudder, gauzy spirographic synths & subtly contagious, half-remembered melody into ebullient bursts of evocative, subliminal & thoroughly modern pop. The songs are equally informed by the rhythmic bounce & stylistic swagger of more left-leaning contemporary radio rap & R'n'B as it is the submerged kaleidoscopic swirl of the early 4AD dream factory.
Also available: NEW CHAIN (LP).
