Album Stream: Dekades – Dekades

Posted on by

dekades

Los Angeles rock outfit Dekades is streaming their guitar heavy, fuzzy and hypnotic self-titled EP below. The band continues to make name for themselves in the local music scene playing raw and intense shows all over southern California and opening for notable acts like The Mowgli’s, Dead Sara, Beta Machine and Big Black Delta. The veteran rhythm section of Chris Cano on drums and James Carter on bass rely more upon groove than rote aggression, mimicking the dark undercurrents of a pulsating human heart. Guitarist Josh Benson provides a rich wall of sound upon which multi-instrumentalist Matt Shores applies the chromatic textures. All this beautiful white noise is summoned behind vocalist/guitarist Arden Fisher, a tour de force in her own right.

Fellow musician and friend Matt McJunkins (The Beta Machine, A Perfect Circle) calls the track “sludgy, dirty and sexy.”

INTERVIEW: Interpretations Of Brilliance – Mat Mitchell of Puscifer

Posted on by

In genetics, mutation is said to have neutral, positive and negative effects. Mutation is necessary for the evolutionary process of beings. A mutation is also said to be a permanent change, often radically altering what was, to create what will be. In music, artists often give life to songs, and once they are recorded, they vary little from that “final version” the artist and their audience grows accustomed to. For the project known as Puscifer, Maynard James Keenan (also of Tool and a perfect circle) prefers to release new music and then re-imagine the songs into other states, also sometimes yielding radical results.
