Duster is strangely enjoyable. It's hard to think of why such simple music as this sounds as good as it does. It's guitar based wall-of-sound with light singing, but I wouldn't call it shoegaze. It's heavy and sludgy and really lazy, like staring at a wall for hours. But I wouldn't call is stoner rock. This fuzzy piece of under the radar music is spaced out, highly atmospheric and floats around aimlessly yet structured as it could be.
Tropical Solution is pretty much the same light riff over and over again for 5 minutes, yet you listen to the whole thing and don't even realize you've spent any time at all listening to it. It's like the successful theory behind Drone music. Except Duster does it even better, and it's not even Drone.
It's loud as hell, but it sounds really quiet
at the same time. Melancholy at its finest.
My favorite find this year.
