Free Music Notes for Spine & Sensory
Free Music Review: Pretty but too rigid to soar
Hit: 3 Stars
The band has sounded less urgent on other releases, although the relatively simple and similar mechanical arpeggios that seem to drive the writing often become a mere thing of dulled shine to admire from afar instead of being the introspective melodic soft-rock the disc's best put together tracks prove.
Spine & Sensory Poster
Known as much for their consistent touring as their prolific output, San Diego's instrumental post-rock quintet Tristeza formed in 1997. The members came together after playing in such seminal San Diego bands as The Locust, Crimson Curse, Swing Kids and Gogogo Airheart, among others. In promotion of their first single, Tristeza toured three times, making the 7" a best-seller and proving that the band could pull off their intricate instrumental sound onstage as well as in the studio.Soon after, Tristeza recorded their first full-length, Spine and Sensory, to huge critical acclaim. This is a reissue of that long out-of-print disc. The album has been remastered at Digiprep Studios in Hollywood (who master most Rhino reissues) and expanded with three hard-to-find tracks. "Macrame" and "La Verdad" were featured on the very limited Tristeza Insound Tour CD, while "Pink Elephants" was featured on the out-of-print Rocket Racer 7".
Jimmy LaValle, featured on this release, is now playing full-time as The Album Leaf (Subpop) and Stephen Swesey plays with Los Angeles based Languis (Plug Research). Although they've been in seclusion for the past two years, Tristeza is currently reforming with original members Christopher Sprague, Luis Hermosillo and James Lehner. The Tristeza saga is set to continue.
