FRESH MEAT FRIDAY - Bandcamp Day Feb. 4th, 2021 Feat.  Aisteach, Space Caravan, Everson Poe, & Non Serviam

2/5/2021

0 Comments

 
On (regrettably infrequent) Fridays, a wagon arrives at the Sleeping Village’s crumbling gates, stuffed to the brim with our sustenance for the following week. Today is the day we must offload all this week's new and noteworthy music, and so, in the process, we thought it would be worthwhile to share some of our choice picks from this veritable mass of fresh meat. This is what we’ll be--and have been--listening to this week at the Village HQ. We hope you join us in doing so! 

As today is Bandcamp Friday, that sweet 15% cut will be directed back to artists. In other words: today is the day to support 'em!

​On the docket for today, Feb. 4th, 2020:
 
Aisteach, Space Caravan, Everson Poe, & Non Serviam

Let's fire things off with a weird one, shall we? Taking its moniker from the Irish terminology for  "peculiar, queer, strange, unusual," 
Aisteach presents 
industrial noise at its most disturbing. To quote my comment over of Ye Olde Bandcamp: "Polytron-ed is a capital-E Experience. This abrasive industrial / grind / noise monstrosity feels simultaneously organic and mechanical, pulsing and pounding with energy." This is an EP that is difficult to listen to by benefit of its overtly creepy vocal samples and its generally oppressive atmosphere, but the sheer inaccessibility is all part of the intrigue. Polytron​-​ed is inventive in a way that we Villagers seldom encounter, and, as such, I'm super excited to hear whatever comes next.

It simply wouldn't be a Friday here at the Sleeping Village 
without a lil' stoner rock. Space Caravan, a crew of riff-worshipers straight outta 
Phoenixville PA, don't deliver the most innovative goods, but the goods themselves are...well, quite good! There's a definite Orange Goblin-by-way-of-Cathedral aesthetic, topped off with a delicious cosmic + biker vibe. The grooves and riffs contained herein are potent as ye might expect, and the vocals, while perhaps a little gruff and unpolished for everyone's liking, suit the rough 'n' tumble feel of the tunes quite well. If you're looking to sample, I recommend the riff-tastic "Black Kraken" as a general overview of what these hard rockin' fellas have to offer.
