Sic Alps – “United ” – [Important Records]

humana   1/16/2009   7-inch, A Library

Psyche pop: The San Francisco duo of Matt Hartman (drums) and Mike Donovan (guitars) cover Throbbing Gristle???s ???United??? on this one-sided 7???. The song is as upbeat as the bright yellow vinyl it???s recorded on. Although you can???t really hear what they???re saying (beyond ???united???), their voices are pleasing, as is their low-fi musicianship. The result is one of gladness that the duo may stay united long enough to make more ???happy??? music together.
