| DESCRIPTION |
|  | ESTRADASPHERE Quadropus Label : Mimicry Year : 2003 Format : CD Style : Jazz / Rock Availability : Out of stock
| | | | | Description : | On Quadropus, the band navigates terrain usually reserved for people who take themselves quite seriously. Who's kidding whom? These guys could eat most of the Downtown pros for breakfast. It's finally evident that the shameless flaunting of the inner-dork that has banished Estradasphere to the annoying joke bin is not by any means the end of the story. Not because the band is ever going to be considered cool or anything pathetic like that, but because how they craft their music has changed into something a lot more listenable. For instance, the ultra-electronic-sounding dub / drum'n'bass of 'Dubway' is done entirely a capella. Their version of an old Greek Rembetica song stays pretty true to the original, even through the wall of guitars and double kick drum at the end. 'Speck' is a nice and creepy ballad, like Mazzy Star doing a Nino Rota cover. Their ridiculous, Godzilla-sized, demented 'funk' song 'KKB' sounds like well over a thousand people playing at once. Sheer primal madness. The Bulgarian-influenced, crowd-pleasing 'Hardball' is a tight-as-fuck trip down Estradasphere lane, only better than before. Also includes a video for 'Body Slam.'
