new radiant storm king
HURRICANE NECKLACE (1996)
 |
"...without a doubt, the most mature of New Radiant Storm King's releases to that point -- their slanted and dynamic indie-pop sound remains largely unchanged from the three preceding albums, but trades some of its punchy rock tendencies for a more textured and composed approach that's frequently more evocative than before. Tracks like "Combat Chair" remain, recalling some of the more direct pieces from previous records, but others, like "The Kind Ghost," have more ambitious sounds and constructions -- and rather than losing any of their focus with this comparatively sophisticated album, New Radiant Storm King take a huge step forward and wind up with their best record yet."
