Blindside

Sofa Surfers

A heavy, noir-inflected blend of trip-hop and art rock. Soulful vocals drift through thick layers of dub-wise bass and rain-slicked urban textures.

March 26, 2010 · Monoscope Productions

A heavy, unresolved urban tension balanced by moments of soulful, nocturnal grace.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the bassline in Heavy Water seems to physically vibrate the air before the vocals even enter.
The seven minute descent of Sinus where the groove slowly dissolves into a wash of textured noise.
The transition from the gritty guitar riff of Hardwire into its surprisingly soulful chorus.
