Genre: Rock

The Slow Transmission is the first fruit of a two year creative burst that saw the musical partners write and record nearly 40 songs. The album is packed with a memorable collection of songs that range stylistically from retro guitar pop to alt-country, new wave and folk-rock. The album's cohesion comes from the sharply crafted hooks that stick with the listener long after the album is done and the genuine emotions that come out in their lyrics. Album opener "Here Out of Reach" takes a simple repeating guitar figure and builds on it with acoustic guitars, cello and vocal harmonies to tell a tale of disappointment and rejection. The propulsive drums and guitar of "Afterthought" combine with Jason Brown's declamatory lead vocals and Jeremy's harmony-heavy backing vocals on the chorus to convey the frustration of being taken for granted by the one you love. Whether it's the elegiac "December Ghosts," the country-folk "Calloused Hands" or the layered guitar intricacy of the instrumental "Clockwise," the album keeps delivering from beginning to end.
