New Shack - So Soda

Read full review & listen on Grotesqualizer.

The Utah duo of Catherine “Madge” Leavy and Eric Robertson returns with a single from an upcoming EP.

The ghostly lo-fi sound of spread web punk synths smashes into the dense beat, and such a mood is the absolute opposite of their previous release, “Ways and Means.” As if telepath テレパシー能力者 remixed some witch house, having stocked up with samples from Nicolas Refn’s thrillers and disfigured slacker rock. Catherine's vocal performance wafts a painful insight and is based on a strange, hazy, but charming poetry. And if you carefully listen to “So Soda,” an unusual state hits you, as if on the border with the subconscious, New Shack stunned the guards to get to the flickering waves of the stream of consciousness.
