Head Void by From Indian Lakes
VINYL: https://shorturl.at/Er2xo
"After diving into From Indian Lakes 10 tracks at a time, “The Flow” remains Head Void’s most powerfully kinetic track, an instant entry in my personal pantheon. I often find myself spinning it on repeat. But this is not one of those awkward scenarios where one stellar track props up an otherwise disappointing LP. After all those years away from the From Indian Lakes moniker, Vannucchi clearly caught a wave of inspiration here, ending up with an entrancing, rewarding body of work. You could jump in just about anywhere on the tracklist and be caught up in the current." - Chris Deville (Album of the week at Stereogum)
Though there are dozens of maiestic moments ridden throughout Head Void, one of the most indelible tracks arrives in the back half with "I Lay Different." The track, which is nearly drumless (save for some cymbal and rim-tapping), takes a psychedelic, evocative guitar riff, generates momentum, and blooms into a gorgeous, gripping climax.
Vann's voice, as always with From Indian Lakes, is gorgeous, familiar, pure, and powerful. - Paolo Ragusa (Consequence of Sound)
"The Lines" sounds great but echoes a kind of euphoria you can only get when you're stuffed into a 30-cap sub-level room. It's that kind of approach that keeps From Indian Lakes unique. "The Lines" sounds like it simmered in a crockpot of emo, bedroom pop and shoegaze for 24 hours, and the result is a remarkably replayable three-minute highlight. —MM (Paste Magazine)
