SEALINGS


The third installment in the affinity for,  bordering on love affair with, SEALINGS shared by Terminal Escape and the mighty Cosmic Hearse. These English bedroom rockers are much rawer this time around; the stripped down 4-track session highlights the drum machine, and the blown out recording masks the pop sensibilities clearly lurking behind a wash of brooding distortion. The first side is faster than the stuff on their two previous cassettes, but the flip lands closer to shoegazing introspective art rock than ever before (check the almost PAVEMENT-esque "Bowling Alley") while digging deeper into the cavernous world of lo-fi rock made in dark closets while the roommates are sleeping.
