The Outpost (CD)
Barcode: 4059251024538
The new album retains the melodic songcraft of Blueneck's best work, as well as Attwood's inimitable seductive, haunting vocals. However "THE OUTPOST" eschews the southern-gothic sepia of "King Nine" in exchange for a maxed-out colour contrast of electronic beats, vibrant vintage synths and guitars that are by turns ballsy, soaring and delicately intricate. From the pulsing Archive-esque Prog whiplash of 'From Beyond' to the plaintive Sparklehorse meets Boards of Canada electro-pop of 'Ghosts'; and from the windswept Earth-esque Americana of 'The White Ship' to the Talk Talk covering John Carpenter expanse of 'Hive'; Blueneck have created one of their most passionate, propulsive and progressive recordings to date.
