Twee, girly and kinda artsy
– On a balmy night at Brookly's Glasshouse, Canada's Memoryhouse make the
boys swoon and the girls depressed.
All in sync and looking nice
they pay homage to everyone from The Cocteau Twins to Everything But The Girl
And Beyond. A melancholic gaggle of folks who started as a duo and is now five
strong (and growing probably as their mum's would like)
Despite their roots harking
back a bit, some LA DJ buffoon even coined the term "ethereal dreampop," as applicable
to Memoryhouse which really couldn't be more gag inducing. Still think beyond
this apparent genius new thriving sub genre they've got the chops. Look out
for "lately," "To The Lighthouse," and Caregiver," which were all flawless on
the night.
