Single info

dusted:

Two more platters from the prolific Dan Melchior, cranking out dozens of unique releases a year, but with all the requisite expectations of his sound – lonely cynicism set to a classic post-punk/folk/garage swing – full intact. I don’t know how he manages to keep up the level of quality, but I can speak for at least one of these following suit with the past. “The Post Office Line” single is not that one, but rather a frustrated noise explosion, given a bit of breathing room on the B-side “Tourists” but suffocating and immense on the title track. Hammering drum machine, reverbed vocals, and overdriven organ/bass combo tones provide an unsettling, flooded sound that’s more Metal Urbain than (not the) Medway Sound. However, it does adequately express the frustration I feel towards my local post office, so I can sympathize. Much more enjoyable is “Mr Oblivian,” still leaning on the handful-of-instruments sound but paying more attention towards creating a melody instead of sensory obliteration. And “Piledriver Nitemare #2” closes the gap between these two styles, with a big filthy Cramps kick and passionate late-night grind. Two more singles and a double LP are on the way, and probably more where that came from as well. Even when not firing on all six cylinders, Melchior can coax out something that’s at least interesting to listen to, and of a particular style, and that’s what keeps him on as a constant in this otherwise dank, uncertain realm of music.
