Wow & Flutter: Draping magisterial guitar symphonies over trance-bound rhythms. This is a band that values and rewards patience. Trance-bound, slowly flowering guitar-based instrumentals offer little of the candy coated instant gratification we Pavilion dogs have been trained to expect from Pop. Instead, the band is content to let its meditative songs find their way home, and to coax listeners to concentrate on the moments of unpredictable prettiness that emerge from the ethereal noise, like ships out of fog banks.
