Noise-rock trio ADVAETA utilizes a static-ridden ambience to create otherworldly sonic soundscapes. On "Gold Thought Exit" (streaming) we are acquainted with Amanda Salane’s voice, a presence as strong as the expansive atmosphere that surrounds them. Her vocals are in part reminiscent of Andrya Ambro of Talk Normal (a band we featured on the cover of the 22nd issue of The Deli back in 2010); both feature an attitude that seems to add extra layers of meaning to what is happening lyrically or sonically. The band’s energy is remarkably original and daring, and among the wash of reverb and distortion, complexities are revealed through dissonant melodies and creative structures. You can see ADVAETA live tomorrow (07.29) at The Silent Barn. – Jake Saunders
