***BEACHES are ANTONIA SELLBACH (LOVE OF DIAGRAMS) on guitar and vocals, ALISON BOLGER (PANEL OF JUDGES) on guitar and vocals, ALI MCCANN on guitar and vocals, GILL TUCKER (SPIDER VOMIT) on bass and vocals and KARLA WAY on drums and vocals. The band’s communal creative processes are collaborative and intuitive, a shared stream of consciousness and subconsciousness which allows each member’s textural layers and sonic harmonics to emerge and merge into the whole. The stylistic shades reflect the shared musical loves of Beaches, from 1960s hit parades to 1970s psychedelia, shoegaze to prog, southern boogie to krautrock. Two thick, clotted sides of heavy psychedelic, instrumental destructo rock, pupils completely dilated from sugar cubes the size of flash cubes. Rippin’ up the surf and kickin’ sand in your eyes, these three tracks are the most stunning examples in the genre we’ve heard in some time.
