The Rainfall Years

About Me

Arguably the most boring band in the world, The Rainfall Years have released three albums in only 15 years, each of which set new standards for self-absorbed, introspective studies in unmitigated melancholy. The band is currently working on new material for their forthcoming album MANWHORE, due for release in 2009. In the meantime, please take a minute to visit the profile below:

Sounds Like: "Dark, looming clouds and harsh noises emerge from time to time. At moments like these, the vocals almost seem like an afterthought because the music is so strong, striking a fine balance between ambience and pop, using the strengths of both with none of the weaknesses." OPUSZINE / "Det første, man oplever på en udstilling af billedkunst, er gerne overfladerne og teksturerne. I tilfældet Ramifications modsvares dette af brede, tilbagelænede og forsagte lydlag, som udgøres af sagte grædende guitarer, diskrete akustiske riffs, blidt duvende blæsere, luftige synths, forsigtigt swingende trommespil og naturligvis det konstante, regnvåde croon. Ud fra disse ingredienser skabes der så motiver, der til tider kan være ganske iørefaldende, men først og fremmest er fundamenter for videre musikalske udflugter. Der kan kastes en del bolde op i luften for hvert nummer – også så mange, at man tvivler på, at enderne når sammen til sidst – men på en netop gådefuld vis udtømmer hver sang sig selv alligevel. Også uden hverken at tæske langhalm eller stresse sig frem: Den hviler simpelthen på lærredet i sit eget ubesmittede nærvær." GEIGER MAGAZINE
