MJ Guider - Precious Systems - LP (2016)

Labels: Kranky
Review by: Captain Fidanza

The record label would only let me listen to the very first of the nine tracks on this album by New Orleans Joy Division fan MJ Guider, which is a shame because the one song they gave me access to was brilliant, featuring as it did, a strange 8-bit drumbeat with the sound of someone leaning on a keyboard and a bizarre voice effect which made the vocalist sound as though she were singing in an enormous cathedral.

I would happily sit and listen to the remainder of this album, hoping to get lost inside its slow-paced, textured atmospheric weirdness, but I suppose that’s Capitalism for you.

Vote Corbyn!
