"As we’ve
already reflected on the release of My
Bloody Valentine’s long awaited opus, we can now hear with refreshed ears
the fruits of their ambient rock influence partially present in NYC’s Dead Leaf Echo. The band crafts elegant, visceral guitar passages with a vocal approach
reminiscent of the best of 80′s shoegaze. They continue to accrue deserved
acclaim as Time Out NY has hailed their shows as, “Some of the
best live music in the city” landing them at SXSW on bills
with The Wedding Present, Japanther, A Place to Bury Strangers and Trail
Of the Dead.
Now Dead Leaf Echo share a track in advance of their debut LP Thought and Language, out March
5th on Neon Sigh, in “Memorytraces”.
The first effort from the band is a 'concept album that follows the conception and birth of a child and his
discovery of thought and language.'"
