Tagging Satellites

Abstract Confessions

Magwheel

Starting out with a hypnotic minimal groove, shedding female vocals across a slow sound, Tagging Satellites puts you in the right mood for the rest of the disc. You have to just sit back and let them take you away. Solid rhythms and almost chanted vocals hit against tripped out psychedelic drone and high wailing guitar. This is spooky shoegaze. This is slow acid jam hitting against dark shadows. This is subtly seductive and poetic. The mood shifts like ocean waves, but the waves never crash, they just keep pulling you deeper and deeper into the water.
