"Aron's Owls" by CASS AVIER album review

[Kranton99]

Written, performed, sung, produced and engineered by Washington state home recorder, outsider artist and pseudonym collector Sachs — whose previous musical projects include Galvn and Cass Avier — Aron’s Owls prowls a fertile, art-damaged soundscape that encompasses a wealth of cross-bred genres and anything-goes approaches that ignore any and all stylistic and structural borders.

Over the course of nine songs and roughly 35 minutes, the album surveys a varied expanse of a pop-fueled discord, incorporating elements of left-field indie rock, experimental electronic music, ambient noise and scorched-sugar psyche-pop melodies — all acid-washed, put through the wringer and then hung out to dry overnight under a dusty industrial haze.

-Darryl Sterdan

Written, recorded, and mixed by Henry Sachs in Seattle, Washington and burned to disk on September 12th, 2024.

All tracks were mastered by Angus Vedder at the Trebas Institute in Montreal, QC.

I found this written about the doelover album & do NOT ask me where Lol...


""""" Doelover is Canadian artist Angus Vedder’s debut release, featuring nine namesake tracks under the ‘Doelover’ guise.
Being a founding member of the since disbanded Canadian alternative pop group Saint Bernard, Angus is no stranger to a good hook. However, this album is something different, and quite the departure from the fuzz-washed and youthful indie charm that was Saint Bernard.
Doelover shows clear introspection in its psychedelic and kaleidoscopic soundscapes. Vedder’s use of watery, nostalgic samples and sweetly comforting harmony make for a journey that is all too real and as earnest as you can get.
Currently based in Montreal after making the move from Sudbury, Ontario, Angus is surely making the best of an unfamiliar and sometimes distantly cold place. Aren’t we all having to do that sometimes?
When his voice occasionally peaks through on the album, usually following twelve minutes of ambient MP4-jockey jams, you can hear it all. His droney, almost banjo-like acoustic guitar, his forlorned eerily sweet melodies that can at times come through as endlessly determined, all brushed over through waves of sand and tape hiss noise.

But it isn’t all pushed to the back burner, as this album is anything but hopeless. It’s so realistically relatable and addicting, yet perfectly sparse. The album is always satisfying.
Doelover is perfectly designed and effortlessly flows. Wonderful album, and my favorite debut album from any indie artist from 2024. """"
