Pathaways Compilation 2012​-​2016 by Immortal Ebt

First review and shit, I mean did you think I was going to do fooking Bluegrass Guitar Music Reviews??!?!? That is a ruse and you were drawn in by the intellectual nature of two finger plucked guitar snobbery. So more fool you this blog is dedicated to ramblings about Bandcamp releases so expect poor humour, poor grammar and poor quark like charm in ASCII.

So my Bandcamp recommendation email took me all the way back to October the 5th 2016, Is that what you think I want Bandcamp? Epic games is dribbling at the stock exchange.

The review...

Immortal Ebt are one of those bands that dont actually exist and I love and admire that due to my own failing in forming friends and relationships I could assemble as a band, sincere Belarus music for a new generation of Putin supporting bois and goiles direct from the bedrooms of the missile bunker. I couldn't find a single interview or reference through Google that didnt highlight that this music is on Spotify and Deezer also. So expect some real wide berth references that has zero to do with this music.

Release opener "Smile Good" sets the context and framing your mind requires to consume this entire album and the Kevin Shields symphonic p*rnography dripping fister that accompanies most of the 25 tracks that span four years of this composers life. Be prepared to drown in distorted multi layered Fender American Vintage II 1966 Jazzmaster Electric Guitars in 3-Colour Sunburst with its oak testes tickled by an undercurrent of suffocating programmed Kontakt 7 Ludwig drum pack purchased from KVRAudio in 2009. Alan Mcgee told me all this before racking up three lines of  2in1 Bold washing up powder on the neck of a Fender Player Jazzmaster PF 3-Color Sunburst second hand guitar before performing fellatio on a Strymon Flint Tremalo pedal purchased at Andertons Music Co, 58 & 59 Woodbridge Road, Guildford, Surrey, GU1 4RF (01483 456777).

The production is muddy like a My Bloody Valentine Amsterdam gig, post Loveless, where the toke smoke smears the air from the speakers to your gaping lugholes as each layered instrument struggles for fascistic dominance under the crushing pressure of reverb, sensitive reverbed distortion, bespattered reverbed delay and clotted semen reverbed reverb. "Luxury" slaps on a Roland Juno 106 vintage 80s legendary synth to prove variations exist to the frowning city dwellers who demand strict understandable key changes over complex beats with a Costa Coffee Maple Hazel Iced Latte dripping from their nose holes, a simple square wave with an epiglottis edge which calms your left side brain fluid sack before you are treated to an experimental overture house brick of a track called "Katadesmos", personally referred to as "Peering Out Of A Seth Rogan K-Hole and Witnessing Brighton Main Street Easter Parade In December". The well placed sample of the crying woman is also a turn on for the hungry singletons that haunt Tinder and your step fathers garage, remember that as you nod your head to the Vintage RAT Reissue pedal abuse. 

"Smile Good 2" simply means I have found another pedal from the cupboard to chain in an chorus-y Johnny Marr pubic treatment 80's way, accompanied with some elevator jazz and eclectic hip hop beats that would shudder the more laid back day tripper. Ok so that was the first four tracks and by this time we have shifted from shoegaze territory to a more nostalgic borderline vaporwave-ish/glo-fi/lo-fi mood and trajectory, WHICH IS FINE!! I flicked through the next bunch of tracks and go to a word which peaked my interest "Revelations", I am biblcally addicted to Anglican stretch mark references, but was marginally disappointed by the thing. No screaming lambs outside Jericho city gift shop but a rap attempt and pitch shifted Japanese sample, hey ho here we go. 

"Suicide" also drew me in but was a jingly jangly Smiths affair with reverbed to max vocals inserted low in the mix, just like Belinda! This release is more homage than original and certainly attempts to be September 1991 but takes to shoehorning some more modern (2016!!!) influences with the lo-fi artifacts and you know what? probably seems more now than now. RERELEASE THIS DAMN THING Danila Kozyrev!!! OR SPAM REDDIT!! Just pitchshift and stretch and you are nostalgic to the 'new' listening internet folk who just discovered CTRL-ALT-DELETE. Another lost album in the Bandcamp sinkhole for you to 'think' about, I suggest you do! ENJOYED!
