Editor's review

The hypnotic post-rock drone of Parlour creates modern-day ragas for mystics in T-shirts. While the blues and Krautrock are vague reference points, the group expands and deviates from those original formulas, leaving them almost unrecognizable. The result is a sound both familiar and disarming.

Biography

In the late 80s and early 90s, Tim Furnish helped cultivate a local rock scene in Louisville, KY that was eschewed from the dominant hardcore movement of the time. Starting with art rock sextet Cerebellum-whose various members would later form Crain, Rodan, and Matmos-and on through the influential Crain, Furnish and company sowed the seeds for a legendary local scene that to this day still thrives with brilliance. And then he disappeared, or so it seemed. Hibernating in his home, Furnish began to sketch new aural ideas and recruited over a dozen friends to help along the way-including his brother Simon and fellow Crain/456 mates Jon Cook, Todd Cook, Tony Bailey and Will Hancock. He would also be seen moonlighting in The For Carnation and Aerial M. In 1999 he turned his ideas into adventures by joining forces with local electronic pop band, Paden to become the sturdy, hypnotic beast that we know now as Parlour.
