mp3: "Sheer Power" - Plush

As a woman there's often a misconception that if you're self-assured and confident it means you have a terrible attitude. Too often it seems like we can't speak up about what we want or desire, especially when it comes to sex and relationships. The San Francisco four-piece Plush challenges that notion on "Sheer Power". It's a charged, frozen blast of shoegaze, with an acknowledgement of - "I know what I want/It only lasted a moment/I pray I find it again."

Plush is a four-piece originating from San Francisco, with members of local SF legends The She’s. While their debut LP, Pine, is a beautiful combination of surf-rock and shoe gaze, their auspicious new release, Please, encapsulates a completely different tone, both sonically and lyrically. Lush and warm, it has cinematic quality which suggests, somehow, that each track takes place in a different climate. With the angular and ethereal falsetto of Karli Helm contrasted by the hypnotic and unwavering voice of Eva Treadway, Please echoes a melancholic honesty that captures the album’s heart-breaking, yet insightful versatility, deriving from both Wowee Zowee era Pavement and Painful era Yo La Tengo. Sonically, the album embraces twinkling guitar tones that are blitzed with spurts of grainy fuzz, flaringly precise and graceful drums, as well as complimentary bass riffs that swirl and swoon each track, working in unison to pin-point these heart-wrenching emotions with clarity and catharsis. After sharing the stage with bands such as Ceremony, All Dogs, Ducktails, Sales and Creative Adult, they have proven their ability to blend seamlessly into wherever they land. Please is out April 29, 2016 on Father/Daughter Records. https://www.facebook.com/thisisplush https://twitter.com/plushsf https://plushsf.bandcamp.com http://www.fatherdaughterrecords.com
