QUATRE TÊTE - ART OF THE STATE (2008)
Damnit, I can never remember the keyboard shortcut to do a ' Ê '.
Ahhh Chicago rock. Chicago artwork. Chicago production. RIP Harry Caray!
Mathy /noise-rock/ post-rock kickassness from now defunct Quatre Tête. Best 90s sounding band to come out in the 2000s. Seriously, this is updated and yes it has all the tight, angular and atypical arrangements, time signatures and thick riffage that lead you to comparisons with Jesus Lizard, The Fucking Champs and Shellac for sure. They nail it. And imagine a Drive Like Jehu/Hot Snakes kind of vocal vibe howling at you snidely.
This is technically their 2nd release for those with scorecards. Their first is a tough to find self-released CDr (I believe). Mandatory.
