#1726 Serena-Maneesh - S-M 2: Abyss In B Minor

This shit's wild enough that maybe Rundgren doesn't get all the credit for just-reviewed Runndans' trippiness after all - SM songwriter/guitarist Emil Nikolaisen's got some good weird flow going on.

Where SM's debut was just pure Placebo shoegaze, this is a wild, wooly, ramshackle piece of searing chopsage, a moving castle of guitars, distorted vocals. The way-too-Bloody Melody for Jaana aside, this is actually pretty exciting stuff, tearing shoegaze apart and putting it back together at cranky angles 4/5
