The Machisimo's - Good Things About To Happen
Opening with a bundle of noises, the track rumbles on, tugging its
brilliance along with it. Incomparable to anything but a truck driving
through Mumbai on market day, this album flaws all expectations. The
opening track oozes optimism. The grunting guitar chugs away repetitive
riffs, the drums knock out simple beats, and the vocals tell tales
of woe, and joy all in one happy welcoming environment. All of the
tracks seems like a fully comprehensible jumble of noises. All of
the parts weave in and out, crashing like waves, and clanking with
the regular rhythms like a machine. There is very little comparison
that you can draw to any other acts, even other DIY bands like 'Yo
La Tengo' these records are set aside in a world of their own, where
it seems much simpler, and happier. For me one of the best albums
of 1996/2013 depending on how you look at it.
