Amiture Music's self-titled debut is a confluence of abrasive power and precision. The album expands and contracts, patterned by driving distortion and pockets of light. "Mountain", released last year, exemplifies the band's penchant for multi-layered arrangements, forming a dynamic sonic landscape that shifts from heady avant-garde to ol' fashioned, thrashing rock'n'roll. The song, like much of Amiture Music, has plenty of grit without sacrificing melody. Frontman Jack Whitescarver began making dark, synth-heavy pop as Amiture in 2018, releasing The Beach (2021) before pivoting to the experimental trip-hop of Mother Engine (2024). Drummer Justin Fossella, bassist Max Berine Shafer, and multi-instrumental Allie Wrubel joined Whitescarver later in 2024, and the project blossomed in character and scope from textured experiments in songwriting and genre into a fully-fledged band, Amiture Music. With this new name comes a move toward a collectivist approach. No longer just Whitescarver, Amiture Music is the sum of it's parts, four distinct perspectives working in tandem to write adventurous yet accessible songs that are based on a shared belief in using dissonance to transcend rather than transgress."Memory Sequence" is a mid-tempo ballad, showcasing how the band is simultaneously grounded in and driven by Fossella's frenetic drumming and Whitescarver's inimitable voice. At times baroque, at times warbling, Whitescarver sings with a romantic flair that gestures towards heaven without leaving the body behind. Influenced by the formal inventiveness and punctuated rhythms of avant-garde composer Glenn Branca and experimental act This Heat, Amiture Music pulls most from the deep grooves and hard edges of The Jesus Lizard, Unwound, and Blonde Redhead. With New York as their chambers, Whitescarver, Fossella, Beirne Shafer, and Wrubel push the traditional bass-drums-guitar-voice set up to the point that each instrument sings wildly, following it's own logic until all the strands weave together and turn discord into beauty.
