Adrian Tramontano - “Vessel” - Buy It

text: Seth Wolfman

A solo album where the artist actually plays every instrument - it’s nuts. So is Vessel. The huge range of sonic playing fields - from house beats to prog rock - challenges the listener’s aural dexterity. “Escher’s Etchings” could be the lost track off of Pink Floyd’s Animals. My face is totally owned. 

Reminds Us Of: Amon Tobin | Pink Floyd | Joe Satriani

I’d like to clarify that for this show they cut off the back half of Neumo’s floor with a curtain and had the upstairs bar closed. It made Neumo’s obviously seem much smaller than it is. Unfortunately, now having seen Neumo’s fully open at another show I can say that this show was very empty. Still White Denim and Brazos rocked.

I agree, it’s very good. Way to deflate their balloon.

Love the photos. And that “Walkabout” song is the drugs.
