"DOA" from GOLD "Gold" from GOLD
Recorded in a basement in 2012, Gold captures the true melodic strength that Anwar Sadat has to offer, while still retaining the Louisville edge that fans of Slint, Breather Resist, and Young Widows will be able to enjoy. Clay Farris's unique, larger than life, soaring guitar riffs make every track on this record explode with a perfect balance of intensity and melodic tranquility. This, in unison with William Carpenter and Shane Wesley's rock solid rhythm section, keep the intricate time signatures and steady driving moments locked and powerful. Wesley's lyricism maintains a dark, social-political theme throughout, mixed with just a taste of introspection and subtle hopefulness.
