You hear the name Cinema, Cinema and you automatically think of a moving
picture, maybe some old B movies... well I do anyway. This three piece Indie
punk group from Brooklyn New York had released their debut
album back in the winter of 2006 and stirred up some serious dust in the places
they played in. Ev Gold provides the vocals and guitars riffs, while Pat Fusco
beats the ol' pig skins and Chris is the thumping heartbeat of a bass player that
cements everything in place. Chris and Ev have played together (on and off) for
over thirteen long years, most marriages don't even make it that long.
Four tracks of punk bliss are recorded on this CD for all of us to enjoy.
All of the tracks seem to carry out their own personal brand of chaos. "Born In
NYC" says it all with it's terse guitar building and rigid vocals, this is where
the boys are from and they sure as hell let you know it. I know not everyone
likes punk, it's sort of like an acquired taste among the chosen few but Cinema
Cinema just seem to draw out and tempt a persons musical taste buds.
All of the bands tunes are created as one big happy family, each person
adds their own edge and style. The CD was mixed at Headgear Studios in Brooklyn
(also home to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs!) and produced by SF Norton. The guys choose to
live in the now and to promote themselves in anyway possible to get their name
out there. I don't think it will take them too long, their CD is going to spread
like a wildfire.
