About This Item
Molded in the fertile rock crescent of Columbus, Ohio, three-piece Golomb - comprised of Mickey Shuman (vocals/guitar), Xenia Shuman (bass/guitar) and Hawken Holm (drums) - channel Midwest friction into an album that seeks tofind a genuine connection. Bounding through bluster likeLoop one minute and hunkered down like Pixies pummeling pop's soft spots atFort Apache the next. The underlying buzz on InchReal PowerInch dips a fewmiles south of Columbus to channel Dayton's favorite sons, stitching togethersome clear-eyed clamor from the GBV playbook. The band lays it bare on InchDogInchwith a slow slink that builds toward the singed elegance of Spiritualized and alyrical labyrinth that's cut and pasted into a Burroughs-esque blur of rockmotifs. The song peaks in pure maelstrom with a glorious glut of feedbackfoaming out of the speakers. The familiar specter of The Velvets rears it's headin the shambolic beat of the title track, and InchOther Side Of The EarthInch getsgooey with dub, but never loses the band's ability to feed the fray. Then, theywind guitar around their rhythms with the grace of early Built To Spill on InchBeHere Now, Inch letting the sax twirls of Henry Ross send the song into the ether. Album Tracks 1.
