WOLF EYES – ‘No Answer: Lower Floors’ CD/LP
This record is sick, you need to worry about this one. From Tough to Toughest to Tangled, No Answer was recorded and mixed at the Michigan Underground Group’s gambling/clubhouse/art space, with the usually 2D-flat quality of the drums and electronics given creeping new brightness-life within the hollow echo acoustics of the sacred space’s cinder prisons. No Answer : Lower Floors shares a natural feel with previous Wolf Eyes efforts but goes much further in detailing their underworld of odd melodies and mangled harmonics. Within their system-based economic compositions, there remains zero room for wasted space. The whole record is less internal misery and more colorful, if of a ‘could be life on Mars’ zone more than rainbows and daisies.
