The Photographic - Pictures of A Changing World
I have decided I am going to stop posting scores for albums and just post quick blurbs about the one's I am listening to and enjoying. I feel that an album needs several months before the true value of its work can be measured. That being said here is a new and lesser known offering from The Photographic which is a two-piece instrumental duo hailing from Louisville, Kentucky.
The Photographic's Pictures of A Changing World is an offering of entirely instrumental music in the vein of Explosions in the Sky (EITS). The two band's are fairly similar in that they use their guitars to create simple melodies that drive the songs and build a sense of tension usually followed by moments of epic beauty. If one listens closely they can also hear shades of Thurston Moore and Sonic Youth's guitar attack and styling in their heyday. The Photographic and EITS carry similarities but both can be enjoyed in there own right. Give these songs a try and I definitely encourage listening to this album as a I find it even more ridiculous to use words to describe music that is entirely instrumental.
The Photographic - "Glass Saviour"
The Photographic - "Inception"
The Photographic - "Secure"
