About This Item
2011 , the third album from the British Electro/Rock/Hip Hop/Garage outfit. Frantic, seesaw brass stabs and delay-pedal vapor trails. Eagles riding the thermals. A call and response between a flute and a girl gang. Time lapse through the seasons in Yosemite Park. A ray-gun Synth and a steel drum. Rolling Blackouts is epic and bratty, subtle and sweet. From the two-minute opening slammer of InchT.O.R.N.A.D.O.Inch to the album's title track featuring Bethany Cosentino (Best Coast), it's all restless and relentless energy. Cosentino also lends vocals to InchBuy Nothing Day,Inch a hyper girls-in-the-garage jangle, while rising Tampa rapper Dominique Young Unique dominates the psych hip-hop call and response of InchVoice Yr ChoiceInch and goes tag-team on the string-led space race of InchApollo Throwdown.Inch Deerhoof's Satomi Matsuzaki leads the way on InchSecretary Song,Inch evoking an asymmetrical Tokyo office with elevators opening on the beat, typing in time and phones ringing in rhythm. With InchReady to Go Steady,Inch the Team delivers their first straight-ahead love song, a nimble pocket-rocket symphony. Album Tracks 1. T.O.R.N.A.D.O 2. Secretary Song 3. Apollo Throwdown 4.
