The last two years have been very, very
interesting for the Pittsburgh's most loved sons,
Modey Lemon. After signing with Mute in the UK and
opening for Dinosaur Jr. at San Francisco's
granddaddy of all venues, The Fillmore, the band
took some time off to regroup and work on new
material. The result is "Season of Sweets".
With one foot in the sci-fi darkness of their last
record, Curious City, one foot in their past
angst-ridden garage wreckage, and one foot in the
kautrock brilliance of the German Frontier (what,
three feet?), "Season of Sweets" is a fuzzed-out,
driving masterpiece with catchy hooks beaten to
death by guitar/synth mayhem. Driven by drummer
extraordinaire Paul Quattrone, the songs twist and
turn through the imagery and dark rock that has
made Modey Lemon famous. Jason Kirker (engineer as
well as band member) uses various keyboards, Moog
synthesizers, and other instruments to flesh out
the sound. At the heart of this album is the
energy and mysticism of singer Phil Boyd. As
primitive as they are futuristic, Modey Lemon
recreates the present, molecule by molecule, every
second of every breath.
