The Olivia Tremor Control
Dusk At Cubist Castle
“An abstract dream play that exists in an abstract place or time that anybody can go to. ”
Bill Doss
— Olivia Tremor Control
A jumbly mess of tape splicing, melding songs, weird arrangements and indecipherable instrumentation this album is the soft gentle signposting to the roads leading away from Rome that you’ve been on anyway from day one. Taking the Beatles experimental tinkering and amplifying tenfold this album, recorded over 3 years on a 4 track, is an excercise in turning limitation around into something positive, funny, visionary and multi dimensional. All your favourite instruments come out to play and you don’t even need to concentrate for very long, knowing that this nice long now is just fine going wherever it’s going.
A pure joy to listen to and a, ahem, modern classic.
