new york city duo exitmusic - comprised of aleksa palladino and devon church release their first ep - a four song collection, entitled 'from silence' on secretly canadian. 'from si lence' immediately establishes the duo's beautiful, chilling aesthetic. the songs evoke a sense of loss, disorientation, and vertigo, while pulsing forward on church's hazy winds of guitar squalor and bass-heavy beats. anchoring the songs are palladino's otherworldly voice, with its spine-tingling vibrato and rich, emotional resonance (few can let out a wail quite like aleksa). from the urgency of opener 'the sea,' which premiered this past june on pitchfork to glorious response, to the haunting sway of 'the hours,' and the stunning depths of 'the silence,' 'from silence' is the perfect introduction to one of new york city's most intriguing new bands. rough trade east in-store - exitmusic - monday 7th november, 7pm Show more
