Algernon: Ghost Surveillance (Cuneiform, 1/26/10)
Algernon: “Broken Lady”
[audio:http://alarm-magazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Algernon_Broken_Lady.mp3|titles=Algernon: “Broken Lady”]The brainchild of guitarist Dave Miller, Algernon walks a thin line between melodically driven post-rock and instrumental unconventionality. Ghost Surveillance places greater emphasis on synthesizers and sprawling song structures, but at its core is the combination of accessibility and technicality that has defined Miller’s style. Noisy, circular rock riffs transform to tranquil, wandering passages. “Timekiller,” the album’s fourth track, is a beautiful, buoyant number — and one of the band’s best creations to date.
