Album info

Looking back, this might be my favorite album of 2014. Definitely at the top of the heap.

Bent’s is a line-up of three: Heidi Cutlack (Gerald Keaney and the Gerald Keaneys), Skye McNicol (Scrabbled, Warden Burger) and Glen Schenau (Kitchen’s Floor, Marl Carx, Per Purpose).

I interviewed them for the first issue of the Fuckin’ Record Reviews zine, which should be out soon. I also wrote the following review for “Non Soon”:

Brisbane’s Bent wouldn’t be served well by implications of amateurish charm. Their debut, “Non Soon”, is not a love letter to Messthetics. We should at least expect that there’s more to the story. Their three members bring a diverse resume to the band, that includes involvement with Marlinchen, Kitchen’s Floor, Cured Pink, Marl Carx, and Per Purpose. That string of projects should help guide you to the conclusion that none of it will be a cute mistake. The album has its post-punk leanings and there’s no doubt that “Non Soon” is loose. The bass charts its own course at the forefront, with Glen Schenau’s thin thread of guitar wrangling itself around the consistent thump. Occasionally we’re gifted the presence of drummer Skye McNicol’s violin, which adds a subtle melancholy to tracks like “Sock Holes”. There’s a purposeful slack to the structure of the album that allows enough space for the pieces to mend together and break apart as needed. The overall effect is that you’re never quite sure we’re they’re headed. But more than everything making sense stylistically, it’s deliberate. Occasionally the songs become pop-oriented, with quick bursts of melody and hooks and all else that lodges itself in your brain, but the fun comes when they retreat and pull the rug out from under you. The production is clean, we find taut rhythms when they’re called for, but it’s for the most part decisive in its asymmetry. All of these elements form a proper foundation for Heidi Cutlack’s poetics and untamed vocal delivery, which roams uninhibited. On “Where’s the Fire”, its dominant lyric – “where’s the fire” – finds enough angles in its execution to retain charm for the two whole minutes it gets repeated. 10 tracks that range from brooding to playful and it’s hard to pick a clear winner out of the bunch. There are also 8 quick, sometimes musical, interludes, that provide contrasting examples of what DIY sounds like at a truly amateur, uncalculated level. This one is essential, although sold out. You can find it digitally, and I imagine someone will reissue it eventually.
