Details:
If a full-length album is the musical equivalent to a novel, then Harsh Lenses is a novelette filled with characters who wallow in nostalgia, lament for the past, suffer from religious hallucinations, jump from rooftops, and spend hemp-hazed afternoons basking in the sensuous summer sun.
With Harsh Lenses, songwriter/recordist, Dean Marino (aka ex~po), sets out to explore his own personal musical/lyrical journey, alone, in his bedroom, without unwanted input or interruption. This staggering debut EP, with its intimate vocal tracks, lo-fi sound layers, partly sunny melodies and low-key production, will surely get under your skin and crawl towards your heartstrings.
A full length CD for early 2005 is expected. Visit https://www.tradebit.com for more information.
"...creative use of instruments and soulful sounding voice, laid back, never rushed and draped with pop sensibilities ... a headphone experience, enriched with Elliot Smith styled vibe and atmosphere..."
