Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
With 2007’s The Adventures Of Ghosthorse And Stillborn, sisters Bianca and Sierra Casady of CocoRosie pushed their fractured electro-art to the brink, precariously and dramatically dancing along the edge of experimental oblivion—making for a compellingly bizarre record. The duo then signed to Sub Pop and leapt into the abyss. With the group’s most diverse potpourri of styles and sounds yet, Grey Oceans is an indulgently individual album that’s more mental than musical. Granted, CocoRosie has always been better processed by brains rather than ears, but the enchanting, dreamlike atmosphere of previous efforts was sufficiently captivating to ride through occasional awkward arrangements or odd vocal effects.
