Instead, we get these well-crafted folk-rock songs immortalized through eerie reverb and aggressive spareness. It’s the aural equivalent of certain scenes from Kubrick’s “2001.”
So you're referring to Tango, with the stock in trade, dated treatments?
Because to me, that's what it is. They no longer sounded like a band...
