On their Suicide Squeeze debut, this Baltimore duo (18-year old Anar Badalov and 19-year old Flora Wolpert-Checknoff), along with drummer/recording engineer Sam Leiber, drop a mope-addled dose of bedroom rock. Anar's baritone lends a low foundation to Flora's airy registers. Sonically meshing the angular bites of "Long Drive"-era Modest Mouse, the expansive bedroom drone of Arab Strap, and the subtle whispers of Cat Power. All through blend waves of layered finger picking, sparse drum loops, stringed accompaniments, and distinctive vocal melodies that weave in and out. Suicide Sqeeze. 2006.
