Morose post-rock is easy enough to emulate, but to excel at the genre really is no mean feat. Nonetheless, it’s one that Memphis, Tennessee’s Mark Brake – alias Holy Gallows, and formerly of Adaje – has mastered with total aplomb; his Rêve dans un rêve 5-track assemblage both an absolute tour de force, and a formidable lesson in consonance and dissonance throughout. From it, the opening City of Dead Kings is arguably its most imposing, doleful guitar licks slowly, yet surely falling away to allow for warbling feedback and putrid distortion to prevail, prior to the tempestuous squalls abating, leaving a crystalline instrumental lament in their wake. Quite wonderful, if woefully so…
