Bottom Of The Hudson - Fantastic Hawk

FANTASTIC HAWK IS THE 90’S BEDROOM 4-TRACK INDIE ROCK SOUND UPDATED TO MOREMODERN STANDARDS, WITH SONICS AND ARRANGEMENTS TUNED AND TIGHTENED UP TO REVEAL THEBEAUTIFUL SONGS THAT ALWAYS LAY UNDERNEATH. THE BOTTOM OF THE HUDSON SOUND ON FANTASTIC HAWK SPANS THE DISTANCE FROM CLASSIC INDIE SLUDGE SUCH AS SEESAW, LUXURIOUS BAGS, AND SEBADOH TO THE SONIC HEIGHTS OF THE TIMELESS SONG GIANTS ROBYN HITCHCOCK, RICHARD DAVIES, AND JEFF MANGUM, ALL UNDER THE GLOSS OF AN INTERESTING PRODUCTION / ARRANGEMENT STYLE A LA THE CHURCH (WHEN THEY WERE BRILLIANT), EARLY MY BLOODY VALENTINE AND THE AFOREMENTIONED HITCHCOCK’S WORK WITH THE EGYPTIANS. WITH TWO FULL LENGTH RELEASES AND TWO EP’S UNDER THEIR BELT, BOTTOM OF THE HUDSON ARE HITTING THEIR STRIDE. LISTENING TO THE SONGCRAFT ON DISPLAY ON FANTASTIC HAWK, IT’S STUNNING THAT THIS IS, IN A WAY, THE BAND’S FIRST PROPER ALBUM. FOR FANS OF SEBADOH, BOWIE, BYRDS, RICHARD DAVIES, ROBYN HITCHCOCK.
