Face+Heel “Chipped Tooth (Ghosting Season Remix)”

08 Oct 2013 — Henning Lahmann

Face+Heel is the Cardiff-based duo of Sinead McMillan and Luke Taylor. After their 2012 debut on Warm Records, the project returns with the Chipped Tooth EP, which comprises three tracks plus a remix of the title track by Manchester's Ghosting Season. Where the original is characterised by McMillan's scattered and manipulated singing, striking an overall friendly note despite some twisted shades, the rework descends into notably darker territory, employing even more heavily processed vocals that at times remind us of Holy Other, a comparison fitting not only due to the projects' geographic proximity but the wistful yearning dripping out of every single note.

The Chipped Tooth EP is out now. Get it over at Boomkat.
