Good songs for bad people

"One to watch" - "Mixing savage lyrics with a haunting, cinematic sound, this enigmatic duo deliver potent songs for surreal times ... Drab City make strangely cinematic music, full of flutes, vibraphones, soft vocals and glitchy beats. Their sound recalls bands such as Broadcast, Tindersticks and Portishead, who emerged in the 1990s in thrall to the eerie sounds of the 1960s - but Drab City present themselves differently. Rough-and-ready beings in their DIY videos and on their graffiti-slathered website, their lyrics are also more savage".

"On their assured, plaintively lovely and frequently agitated opening salvo, Drab City have concocted a minor masterpiece of electronic phantasms and rumbling desert soul from grim tidings, alienation, 21st-century hauntological aesthetics, and dissonant harmonics. It's impressive work that emanates both a seamless sprawl and a mounting dread".
