Calypso Garage? Carnival No Wave? Tropical Punk? Trunk? Whatever,
Abe Vigoda are pretty mixed up. They've been compared to a younger, more angular and incisive
Talking Heads, but really there's no comparisian close enough to describe this band's style. Imagine
Suicidal Tendencies circa 1985 relocated to Trinidad, force fed rum and kept awake for 72 hours on a picturesque beach until they simultaneously (a) become one with the carnival spirit and (b) inwardly collapse in fits of nervous noise-infused punk meltdown, and you're getting close.
Former
M83 member Nicolas Fromageau's new project
Team Ghost is as epic and wall-of-sound as his previous activities, all washes of guitar, submerged vocals and fuzz. For fans of
Amusement Parks On Fire,
Explosions In The Sky,
Ride,
My Bloody Valentine... you get the idea.
