THE PAPER CHASE - YOUNG BODIES HEAL QUICKLY YOU KNOW (2000)




















The Paper Chase were an experimental rock band from Dallas, Texas (1998-2010).
This was their debut album which is more guitar driven. The albums that follow, while still containing guitar elements, start introducing other instrumentation to help create their insane and jarring experimental compositions.
That's right kids, these songs are compositions. Big words I’ve learned to throw around.

I can’t really say that these guys ‘sound like’ anyone else, as they take discordant melody and jagged noise pop and mix in abrasive prog, indie grit, punk anger, delicate piano and cello melodies and explosive noise pummeling along with samples and sounds. You want spinning emotion, and uncomfortable confusion?
You got it right here bud.
(Beatville - 2000)
