Allah-Las

"Waterhouse's production aesthetic involves a lot of tubes and analog equipment and "natural" sounds. The idea is to give the appearance of a band bashing out a record in a matter of minutes, but the reality of the process is far more deliberate and meticulous ... Allah-Las are ultimately preoccupied with sound above all else. So long as there are 12-string guitars, four-piece drumkits, and lots and lots of reverb, the rest of the world can go away".

"It encapsulates the moment when youth becomes a memory, boiled down to fuzzy remnants of apocalyptic sunsets and the pangs of love and enchantment ... Though not on the surface a break-up album, the evidence is there ("Vis-a-Vis"). It's so obviously rendered from the hearts of its band members, four sensitive guys who wanted to make some music about love".
