„Experimental campfire music . . . muddy-water trances . . . parking-lot anthems . . . . The Dust Dive employs Magnus chord organ, violin, samples, ambient field recordings, guitar, and three vocalists to create unusual sound-visions that have been described as „urban pastoral,‰ „ghostly,‰ „mesmerizing,‰ „bittersweet,‰ „psychedelic,‰ and quirkily sincere „like a youth recital.‰ As a cerebral bonus, their lyrics borrow from ill American landscapes, subterranean teenage hangs, photography, lost birds, lost love and running away. Their sparse yet texture-heavy sound and ragged songforms have been compared to Syd Barrett, Sparklehorse, The Kinks, Dirty Three, Smog, The Flaming Lips, and The Velvet Underground, among others.‰ |
