CanΓÇÖt :, : think of a more comprehensive assimilation of such bands as My : :' Bloody Valentine, Swervedriver, and Slowdive than on that ': ,: album. Every song, whenever it is randomly played on my player :, : conjures up 90s shoegaze brilliance from that little hitch in : :' MBV's guitars or the straight-line voice of the singer melting ': ,: into the waves of guitar. Leaper was one of the best albums that :, : year, if you are a fan of shoegaze. : :' ': ,: That was Beliefs last album two years ago. Now, pretty much so :, : long shoegaze. Habitat, Beliefs new album, takes the band into : :' dark electronica and fairly far from the joyous waves of guitar ': ,: noise of their previous album and has the band pretty much :, : rewriting how they do things from a musical standpoint. : :' ': ,: Josh Korody and Jesse Crowe are the duo that make up Beliefs and :, : hailing from Toronto, they have established much credibility in : :' the Toronto scene and everywhere else really. All three of ': ,: their albums are rich in musical complexity and pay great homage :, : to their influences, which previously was those glorious : :' shoegaze bands of the 90s. ': ,: :, : Habitat now takes the band into more focused dark recesses, and : :' since Jesse announced to the world that they didnΓÇÖt want to be ': ,: a shoegaze band anymore, so be it. Still Habitat is another :, : strong album from the band and shows them more experimental than : :' derivative. Owing to that there is plenty of that atmospheric ': ,: Aphex Twins meets Chromatic in such tracks as ΓÇÿ1994ΓÇÖ. Beliefs :, : is a band not afraid to invoke their musical influences. : :' ': ,: One significant aspect of this minimalist programmed approached, :, : the haunty, husky, hypnotic voice of Jesse shines on a track : :' like ΓÇÿDivided Youth (Only Lovers)ΓÇÖ. Her full range is ': ,: showcased in this format instead of the conforming, derivative :, : format shoegaze afforded her most of the time. : :' ': ,: Beliefs is made up of two extremely talented musicians not :, : afraid to take chances, switch gears, or go wherever they choose : :' and since they do it so well, most of their fans, old and new, ': ,: should follow along. :, : : :' ItΓÇÖs fairly obvious after listening to Habitat Beliefs had ': ,: reached the limits of copying that trademark 90s sound and now :, : are proclaiming a love of a newfound set of electronic toys to : :' process, or the desire to go considerably darker with their ': ,: structures and themes. Or perhaps both. But in a new direction :, : they did go. And it worked out more than fine. Habitat is no : :' less interesting and compelling as their previous albums. It ': ,: should be interesting what they produce in the next two years. :, : : :' ': : ' '.. ..' .. . :........... . . . . ............: . . ______________ ______________ \ / \ / \ / Shout out to all our homies from: \ / \ / \ / \ / iPC BOSS HiT2000 1way UKi i8 RNS \ / \ / RAGEMP3 MANDY DV8 pLAN9 BUTT \ / \ / \ / \/ ____ ____ \/ \ / F A N G \ / \/ 2 0 2 0 \/
