THURSTON MOORE - Rock N Roll Consciousness 2LP

$61.95

Indie Record Store Exclusive.

More of a full rock band than a solo project, this is a great album. The group has evolved since "The Best Day" and every member is essential to the band's sound.

James Sedwards outstanding guitar solos here have more space to shine but they blend well with the overall warm noisy sound and don't alter the mood of the music.

Shelley and Googe are an excellent match, how they blend is pure magic.

"Exalted" and "Turn on" are both very long songs in which the band slowly develops a soundscape and once it is reached shifts to a new musical idea. There's a lot of contrast between soft and loud. Emphasis is placed on the very essence of sound and the lyrics confirm both are odes to rock music.

"Cusp" is the loveliest track on the album. The rushed rhythm combined with the guitar textures are pure bliss. The last tracks are both singles. "Smoke of Dreams" is more of a laid back song that talks about NYC, overall a very nice song. "Aphrodite" is a great closer, the ending section is outstanding
