on red vinyl - R&S proudly presents ‘Warmth’ the extraordinary new album from critically acclaimed New York based duo Blondes AKA Sam Haar and Zach Steinman whose ten tracks of mesmerising, ever shifting rhythmic workouts percolate alongside contemporaries such as Levon Vincent, Joey Anderson and Donato Dozzy.
Warmth contains some of their hardest work yet. Swisher already seemed big, but by boosting the drums and reducing the textures by a hair, Warmth has considerably more horsepower. "MRO," for example, thickens in mass like a thundercloud, with techno kicks that speed into the eye of the storm. The brooding "Quality Of Life" pounds among hissy percussion and blasts of distortion. On "All You," anxiety overtakes—the low-end throbs menacingly, the synths erupt in paranoid loops. Blondes have never sounded so severe.
