Chris Diehm (Thin Lips, Year Of Glad, 1994!) and Evan Dwyer (The Battlefields Studio) add up to the musical duo of Algebra. The band’s debut EP Die Noisily exasperatingly accelerates as its components skillfully combine. The well-oiled, instrumental machine rumbles through the streets with Diehm’s vocals illustrating an accessible, emotive angle, balancing the momentous force of the music. (Photo by Scott Troyan)
