OK, this one's a themed split 7", bands from opposing geographical areas are paired up with artwork provided by local photographer from said locations. Really like the photo's on this one so that bit of the theme is working out fine but what of the music? Lets see...The A side is by Oakland residents Colossal Yes who ply their trade in emotive rock balladeering with muchos gusto. They play real nice music with guitar licks galore and tasteful vocals a plenty. Flip it over and you get The Good Fear (from Fayetteville, Arkansas) whose music is a little more morose and dramatic than Colossal Yes but just as consistent in quality. Kinda like Bad Seeds or Afghan Whigs maybe. Got a bit of Queens Of The Stone Age/Mark Lanegan vibe to it too...tasty.
The first entry in Gold Robot's ongoing split series which pairs artists from different geographic regions together. Featured here are Colossal Yes (Oakland, California) and The Good Fear (Fayetteville, Arkansas). Artwork is provided by photographers from each region (Elise Irving from California, and Rett Peek from Arkansas).
SIDE A: Colossal Yes - "Backbiter Blues"
SIDE B: The Good Fear - "Be Like Us"
