Ignore the Witch House hype !!! This album is by no means Witch House, it is something far superior. The 1st EP by Chino Moreno (Deftones) & Shaun Lopez' (Far) Crosses(written as †††) is something special, despite having slight Hip Hop/Pop tinges, it is considerably more dynamic & far darker than anything on radio today.Even though the first track especially has a Dark Pop tone to it, this short release (only 18 minutes) is quite varied & exceptional beautiful. Calm but passionate, electronic but not electro, beautiful but not sweet, the album is hard to define but instantly familiar. Think of it as The Cure + Massive Attack, but at the same time neither truly Gothic Rock or Trip Hop. Not really the kind of release to have stand-out tracks as the whole EP is a short listen, which should be listened to in 1 go. Not challenging & at the same time not mainstream, but well worth it... & Definitely NOT Witch House.
Best Tracks: Op†ion & Bermuda Locke† (If I must, but 18 minutes is not long for a full listen)
