Sweet Rot

***“EVENING MEETINGS are CRAIG CHAMBERS, MATTHEW FORD, ERIN SULLIVAN and MING YEE. Together they have been part of the great stream of underground bands coming from Seattle over the past decade—A FRAMES, LOVE TAN, FACTUMS, INTELLIGENCE, THE LIGHTS, LE SANG SONG, THE DIPERS, YVES/SON/ACE, AFCGT, etc. Sweet Rot has been a huge follower of these bands over the years (releasing a Love Tan 7" in the process) and we couldn't be happier to release the band's debut s/t LP. Each of the ten songs featured here is grounded upon a solid foundation of rhythm while the two guitars are free to poke and lurch wherever they please, sometimes off-kilter and noisy, sometimes fuzzed out, and sometimes twangy and sliding bringing to mind acts such as Gun Club or Scientists. While most songs aim directly for the jugular a few are a bit more loose and wandering, similar to the band's excellent 7" on Dirty Knobby. The end result is a mature, focused, confident record that we think will stand the test of time. Expertly recorded by ALEX YUSIMOV at The Pool on all analog gear and mastered by TiMOTHY STOLLENWERK.”
