Grace/Confusion

These are tracks that will sound equally appropriate on your headphones while waiting for the bus as they will on a dance floor. 

Grace/Confusion’s songs are of the kind that shift gears and directions drastically from one moment to the next – but Hawk has it all under control and never does it feel jarring or misjudged.

While the composition of this album may be a little scattershot for some, Hawk succeeds in making this a rewarding and distinctive listen, as well as recalling some old tricks that were sadly lacking in recent efforts.

Grace/Confusion is an aptly confounding record, its six tracks very much dissimilar to each other yet held together with a sense of grand gesturing and tireless virtuosity.

It's hard to call it an "improvement" or "progression" considering it's hardly outside the scope of what Memory Tapes has done so far.
