There is something timelessly modern here. uncanny yet beautiful. complex yet simple, it inspires the imagination. the kind of music to write and paint to. definitely a favorite

Very original album. I keep listening to it, humming along and tapping my feet. Seriously, go listen.

Very rough instrumental rock

29/03/08

It's very rough instrumental rock with traces of electronica. The songs are very demo-like from the technical and production side, but the melodies are really nice, although extremely simple. I didn't like only two tracks: "4 toufic" and "8 easy to popular". The first contains awful too loud high-frequency noises that are almost unbearable. And the second is too sweet and primitive - almost like it had barrel organ origins.

The rest of the tunes deserves strong 7/10, so the answer to the artist's question, whether he should upload more, is: "Please, do!"

a very good album

26/03/08

The debut Missing Host Band album consists of rough but melodic postrock tunes with some electronica flavour, which is a good thing. I’m a fan of such music, so I quite enjoyed Dusk Gazing. Slow, dirty and reverbed guitar loops connected with not very abundant drums creates very nice, slacking, lazy atmosphere. Even if you’re not keen on post-rock it’s good to listen to it on some afternoon when you do nothing but lay in bed. The best tunes on the record in my humble opinion are: toufic with very ascetic, almost Joy Division sound plus great pitch-ascending melody and easy to popular, very neatly mocking easy listening melodies.
The cover of the record corresponds to the album very neatly and it cues the postrock/ electronic mood. It’s almost estethic, so thumbs up for it.
The only disadvantage is a structural minimalism of the record. It’s not as atmospheric as To Rococo Rot or Tortoise so the album loses a lot not being a little bit more composed. However this is my only remark. I hope that the possible live version would include richer arrangements and longer compositions.

stay tuned,

SUPERBES SONS

15/03/08

Magnifique ce mélange de guitare et de sons électro !
Belle recherche dans les sons, cela suscite de profondes émotions.
On a parfois l’impression que l’interprète cherche ses notes, tâtonne , hésite, puis se lance et le résultat est surprenant mais superbe.
« Touffic », « the message » et "Swoel" m’ont le plus marquée ; ces mélodies aux sons répétitifs et lancinants laissent une impression d’immense tristesse.
Un très bel album.
