Abney Park: Welcome To The Park
- Vengeance
- Abney Park
This two song demo is meant to serve as a quick look into the world of
this Gothic tinged Seattle act. The first track 'Vengeance' fuses moody
masculine vocals with wafty female vocals wrapped around light guitar,
electronic drums, and minimal atmosphere. The second track 'Abney Park' starts
out with a slightly out of place ethnic sample then flows into structured
electronics that changes into a very Rockish piece. As a whole, the band
exhibits remarkable compositional and studio skills. Both tracks are crisply
arranged, recorded and executed. The only thing that confuses me is that their
web page calls them an Electronica act, which they are not. I can't
help but wonder if the band has gone through a recent line-up change?
