When an odyssey ends
Resuming the fight between up-beat melancholy and a lo-slung shuffle, Washed Out may be from Columbia, South Carolina but they string far closer to our favoured West Coast set of Nite Jewel, Ariel and Geneva Jacuzzi than the 2120 miles between them may suggest. They’re all at a different game of course, but I wouldn’t doubt synths so hallowed they’re positively transcendental couldn’t form some kind of ethereal coast straddling plane and meet in the middle. Also, it’s been around the web for a while but here’s Pearl Habour playing Coleridge through Brian Wilson - another solid gold heart stealer.
