Essential Tremors: The Visitor 12″ EP

It’s not easy to find information about this band, because Googling their name brings up information about nervous system disorders. As it turns out, they’re a Nashville-based post-punk/synth/darkwave band and the EP was produced/engineered by Dan Tomzack, formerly of Detroit groups Terrible Twos and Johnny Ill Band. Booming drum machines, goth-y bass guitar, distorted vocal, noisy effects. Pretty surprised to hear this on Third Man, but it fits, especially after they released a Wolf Eyes album last year. This is sort of somewhere between that and some of their more typical garage rock releases. “MTA” is probably the bleakest and coldest of the tracks, and “Death Perception” is maybe the danciest. They’re all good, really.
