Artist- Buke and Gass
Album- Riposte
Label- Brassland
Genre- Rock, experimental
This is one of the best surprisingly good random CDs I’ve gotten in awhile. 2 person group from Brooklyn who are signed to The National’s personal record label. Singer Arone Dyer sounds a bit a cross between Marnie Stern and the chicks from Dirty Projectors. She also plays a self-made instrument called the “buke” (baritone + ukulele, pronounced byook) while Aron Sanchez (please have weirder names, kthxbye) rocks out on the “gass” (guitar + bass….get it??). The effect is awesomely weird. It’s angular with tempo changes, it’s noisy yet not punky, it’s chaotic, and it’s a helluva good debut. For fans of wacky music like Melt Banana or M. Stern.
