Title:
Label:
KRANKY
Format:
CD
Price:
$13.00
Catalog #:
KRANK 003CD
Debut full length by this Seattle band with a couple singles and a bit of a Silver Apples fixation behind them. "Moog-guitar duels," "electron wave lapping," and other forms of cloudy pop damage within a somewhat straight indie format a la Stereolab (or some other utterly fantastic band that I'm too lazy to listen to).

Title:
Long Arm of Coincidence
Label:
KRANKY
Format:
CD
Price:
$13.00
Catalog #:
KRANK 012CD
"From beginning to finish,
The Long Arm....
is a remarkable work that documents the range this quartet can cover; from Moog squiggles to blissful balladry to rhythmic tangle and stellar directed drones. The full integration of percussionist Michael Faeth into the band has resulted in a more confident and varied rhythmic base.
The Long Arm...
is a resolutely percussive album, inspired in part by the extended interplay of Can in their
Tago Mago
period. More directly, it is the result of Jessamine's commitment to live improvisation. "

Title:
Don't Stay Too Long
Label:
KRANKY
Format:
CD
Price:
$13.00
Catalog #:
KRANK 030CD
"From the initial tickling and teasing of a Fender Rhodes electric piano,
Don't Stay Too Long
announces that Jessamine have harnessed their experimental muscle to song craft. They link the instrumental forays of
The Long Arm of Coincidence
to the melodic invention of their singles to make a definitive statement. Dawn Smithson's crystalline vocals float over bubbling synths, trade off with Rex Ritter's voice, counter cascades of guitar and weave around Michael Faeth's superb drumming to make each song here direct and effective."
