Johnny Poindexter - Place Your Trust In Empty Spaces
Through most of Place You Trust In Empty Places, Johnny Poindexter inhabits a intense dream/nightmare world. The six piece band plays music from a post-rock purgatory; bleak and dark with torturous but mesmerizing harmonics. Jamie Sidebottom’s vocals are almost afterthoughts as he practically chants in “Headswim” and “Madeline” while the more upbeat “We Meet By Accident” pairs a New Order-like refrain with Jesus and Mary Chain walls of sounds. Most of the tracks are firmly in the shoe-gaze arena. This is a good solid effort by a promising new band.
The album is available as separate tracks or full albums zip in 128kbps MP3.
