Attics to Eden is an album that proves maturity comes with experience. One of rock’s most promising young acts takes the listener on a unique auditory voyage across layer upon diverse layer of sound. The 12 songs on the album including “Never Walk Alone,” “Let’s Get Out of Here,” “Legends,” and the guitar-less “Friends and Lovers” are replete with otherworldly atmospherics, epic guitars, intricate and oftentimes punishing drum-work, melodic choruses, imposing bass lines, audacious instrumentation, and Nathan’s unpredictable, inescapable vocals.It’s a sonic, rock and roll assault on the senses, and Matthew says that’s just what the band rounded out by guitarist and programming genius Mateo Camargo and drummer Dan Torelli was aiming for.“Our favorite records were ones that didn’t have one dull moment,” Matthew said. “We wanted to make a real record, a genre-less record and a timeless record. I think there are musicians like the White Stripes, where less is more undoubtedly. Then there are bands like the Smashing Pumpkins or Nine Inch Nails, where they want all of these components attacking the ears from different angles, at all times. We’re the latter, the kind of band that wants as many components as possible.”
