Free Music Notes for Slow Motion World of Snowpony
Free Music Review: Amazing
Hit: 5 Stars
Reading the mixed reviews of this cd I was a little surprised. People seem to have wanted it to be a sound-a-like of Stereolab and My Bloody Valentine. The 2 differ so much I can't see that that is at all realistic. There are influences of both sounds, but this debut stands on its own two feet. It's shoegazing for the post shoegazing era; it's a wall of beautiful noise. I had not listened to it in a few years and rediscovered it while programming music for my online internet radio station, www.radioioROCK.com. I then had to load it into my ipod so I could take with me everywhere, and have started tracks over several times just to hear the intricate manipulation of sounds. Listen to "Easy Way Down", "Way to Survive", and "Snow White" to see why this cd is still amazing after 6 years. MORE than worth checking out.
Slow Motion World of Snowpony Poster
Alternating tones of sexy guitar crunch and shoegazer shimmer within a crackerjack rhythm framework, Snowpony's first full-length release, The Slow-Motion World of Snowpony, slithers into your subconscious with effortless inevitability. Though Snowpony is mostly spoken of as an alternative "supergroup" based on past exploits of its members in such bands as Stereolab, My Bloody Valentine, and Quickspace, one listen to songs like "Snow White," with its horn-sampling, outta-left-field sensibilities, reveals a unique voice yelling back at you. Katherine Gifford's sleepy phrasings and savvy songwriting imbue the music with a vibrant musicianship and benefit greatly from the authoritative, throbbing backbeat provided by Debbie Googe and Max Corradi (since replaced by Kevin Bass). Informed by rolling melodic structures and the guile of seasoned musicianship, Snowpony have laid claim to a sound that belongs only to them, a sound that jumps out from shadows, pulls you to the ground, and engages in tuneful tickle fights. --Matthew CookeAlternative Rock Music CDs
