This band Is retardedly under appreciated in Boston, but hopefully some of you will finally check them out with this new release, a split CD between them and Giant, and a split label release between me and Level Plane. Holler. Here's the official word: While both bands share slower tempos and amp-worshiping guitar tones, Tides and Giant manage to strike their own course in a scene that is rife with boring clones and uninspired songwriting. Tides write gorgeously lush soundtracks to movies not yet made, filled with emotive guitar work, dynamic drumming, and huge production. The tone on opening track “The Invisible” ebbs and flows. After rising and falling and rising again, it crescendos into melodic strumming and pounding cymbals before finally crashing into lone distorted bass. Following is a brief but beautiful acoustic interlude that leads to the piano intro of side two. Giant’s sole track on this record features the band’s three-guitar line weaving it’s way through both the heaviest of distortions and hauntingly euphoric passages. Echoes of reverb give way to enormous buildups and the most satisfying of resolutions. Commanding vocals and sparse keyboards compliment the twelve minute opus which concludes the record. CD out now on Level Plane/TDB Records. http://tdbrecords.bigcartel.com http://tdbrecords.bigcartel.com http://tdbrecords.bigcartel.com http://tdbrecords.bigcartel.com http://tdbrecords.bigcartel.com
