Quickly Quietly aren’t your average groove-shaking, alt-dance quartet. This band isn’t afraid to take their music to areas that sultry, laid-back grooves and buzzy analog keyboard-driven bass lines rarely visit: deep guitar based psychedelia. And their latest release, ‘Falling Beams’ EP, builds on this sonic dicotomy to create a sound that’s as much fun as it is heavy.
Latest single ‘Daily Echo’ runs through a continuing process of hazy moog-filled space explorations: at one point sounding close to Godspeed You Black Emperor’s cinematic epic-ness, while at other times cruising at an altitude perfect for laying back and taking it all in. it’s one of the group’s first releases since 2011’s ‘Seven’ EP (other than their fascinating, almost entirely improvised ‘L Sessions’ released last year). See it happen live when they play Spike Hill on Sat, April 19th. – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
