The Weight by Chlorine

"It’s a late evening in early March near the top of the world, and Chlorine’s new eight-song LP The Weight creeps and seeps through my earbuds as only the most fitting of all soundtracks can -- enveloping me in its slow embrace as the Nordic nighttime spreads itself at a glacial, gradual pace across the yards, houses, sidewalks, and streets of my neighborhood. From the seductive opening salvo of “The Abduction” to the decaying, subterranean skronk of “Again,” The Weight is a lurid, languid tangle of voice, piano, guitar, and drum – instantly lush and lo-fi, equal parts resistance and resignation, joyously sad, guardedly vulnerable, and more than deserving of your attention. You’ll thank me later."
