disappears are that rarest of musical things, a 'rock' band affiliated with kranky. but at least they are a rock band and not some less than reasonable facsimilie, because let's face it; most bands using that descriptor would not sonically intimidate your grandmother if she were alone in a dark alley. and deliver the granite the disappears do from the opening chords, delivering scuzzy, driving rhythms that certainly imply a threat of ill will. drawing on a combined reverence for reverb, heavy tremolo, distortion, delay and repetition, disappears play minimal rock music inspired by krautrock, punk rock, the mid 80's new zealand scene, and a bit of everything in between. and in their minimalist approach the band finds their real strength, hammering home chord structures that are tried and true and can and do remain fresh in the hands of the right talents such as these. as a wise man once said, 'keep it simple stupid'. this is the debut studio full length from this chicago quartet after two singles and a limited live album, all self-released by the band. for fans of: 90 day men, spaceman 3, flying nun records.
