Just when you think they&#8217;re going to be some kind of parlor-room arty act, swirling backward guitar and stomping bass and drums come crashing in, shattering the reverie. Homme&#8217;s strategy is to lure listeners in with a fetching melody and arrangement, and then \u2013 at least some of the time \u2013 bludgeon them with unexpected rocking-out. Their knowing musical use of shade and light makes the jarring changes welcome. Singer-songwriters <strong>Sima Cunningham<\/strong> and <strong>Macie Stewart<\/strong> combine cleverly-edited vocalizations \u2013 check the bridge on \u201cFingerprints\u201d \u2013 with alluring melodies, and save for a guest guitarist on one track, they do it all themselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>File Next to: KT Tunstall, The Roches, Radiohead With electric guitars (run through a Leslie speaker cabinet and other assorted effects) and close yet vocal-acrobatic harmonies, the experimental yet inviting [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10082,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,33,49,65],"tags":[2610],"class_list":["post-10081","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-avant-garde","category-garage","category-new-release","category-review","tag-homme","cat-7-id","cat-33-id","cat-49-id","cat-65-id","has_thumb"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10081","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10081"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10081\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10084,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10081\/revisions\/10084"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10082"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10081"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10081"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/blog.musoscribe.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10081"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
