DESCRIPTION: Let's call it 'post-rock with shoegaze shoegaze overtures, executed with sublime objectivity,' he wrote in a desperate attempt to sound like Bertrand Russell. I'm a little bonkers about Jessamine's self-titled debut, if y'all can't tell. There's a good reason for the fascination. As exemplified by this track, they combine a medley of experimental and noise rock tropes and execute it all with such zeal that it's impossible to deny the efficacy and immediacy of the result. Just eat it up.
