Carrollhood – Violence.

February 11, 2013 • self-released

Something quick and short today—an EP I nabbed off of Bandcamp a few weeks ago on a whim: Carrollhood's Violence. I'm not really sure how to best describe the music Carrollhood makes; the first track starts off as a sort of ethereal ambient pop, then quickly moves into a more aggressive, drum-heavy riff that lies somewhere between rock and... electropop maybe? I have no idea, it's not the kind of stuff I usually listen to so I don't really have any idea what I'm talking about.

I've been enjoying it though; the songs' layered textures and use of dynamics are both very well-done, and the songwriting itself is pretty good, with strong melodies and composition. Anyway, long story short, it's solid stuff and more than worthy of its free download.
