virginia effected Lamenting The Late Virginia Summers

First, I love the band name. The versatility of trying to decide if The Late Virginia Summers is honoring a deceased woman or if they’re indicating an attempt to capture the mood of September in the mid-Atlantic region is a nice enigmatic touch. And the colorful yet lamenting mood on “Golden Cypress” seems to suggest both. The dangling threads of reverberated guitar notes, astronomical low end, and aquatic rhythm bring to mind Mogwai circa Rock Action and more ambient Do Make Say Think. Space rock is still very much alive, and it’s gotten intensely melodic as of late. (The Late Virginia Summers on MySpazz)

For fans of: Mogwai, Experimental Audio Research, Set Fire to Flames
