The kinder, gentler Galaxie 500: Damon Krukowski and Naomi Yang continue to create a melodic and haunting wall of sound without Dean Wareham's edgy voice. Intricate layers of instrumentation, percussion, and vocals blend together to produce something ethereal without droning. Their simplistic melodies never bore, but instead gather up the soul and take it for a ride. With Playback Singers, they've created a soundtrack to stimulate the intellect as well as the heart. Kudos: Each song fits together to paint an aesthetic, holistic effort. |
