Snowman - Absence


Snowman are an Aussie band, originally from Perth but based in London, until they disbanded in February this year. Which is kind of really fucking unfortunate, because they are one of the finest bands Australia had seen until now. This is their swansong 'Absence', released earlier this year.




Ethereal rock music is the best way to put this. Brings in the best bits of Liars, This Heat and Radiohead (for lazy comparison's sake) to create something singular and seductive all at the same time. Most underrated record of this year? perhaps.
