It’s a chilly one in LA today. Rather odd since last week was a miserable sweaty mess. But alas, you cannot predict the weather…unless of course that’s your job. What you can predict though after hearing Via Coma’s Figures is that you’re in for a musical escape to a land that mirrors an avant-garde dream.
“Blame” claims “we’re all the blame,” and gives off an Angels and Airwaves scent, while “Stitches” has a softer approach and is like Humaana. The whole time this record played, it morphed into sounds you’d hear in movie scenes. “Morning” is a captivating dream sequence that’d make cinematographers blush. Then “Iron Horse” going the opposite way and offering itself up for the background of something a little darker. The eerie repetition of “iron horse” towards the end could be imagined in FX’s American Horror Story.
Most of the songs showcase drawn out progressions that lead up to a fascinating end that music fans will appreciate and if you’re in LA on June 23, you can catch Via Coma down at Amplyfi for an intimate show. Figures is out June 12th, so mark your calendars for that and their LA show…if you’re in the area or planning to visit.
