PIKELET - VINYL CALLUSES [VINYL]

Popis - CALLUSES [VINYL]:
Calluses is a darker, denser beast than its predecessors. The celebrated Stem can now be seen as a transitional record, bridging the gap between the loop-driven solo project of Evelyn Morris (as heard on the 2007 debut album) and the
fully-fledged live band that came together in 2009, comprising Evelyn, drummer Matthew Cox (Witch Hats), bassist/guitarist Tarquin Manek (Bum Creek) and synth wizard Shags Chamberlain (Lost Animal). Now with four years under their belt, Pikelet are captured on 'Calluses' in full flight, confidently exploring unknown territory. From the post-apocalyptic eeriness of 'Pressure Cooker' (a teaser track premiered on Spin.com in May) to the frenetic introspection of the first single 'Combo', to the '60s Euro space jazz of 'Forward Motion', 'Calluses' is bold, ambitious and layered, a record that rewards repeated listens with subtle details and hypnotic depths.
