Maica Mia (2015)

Montreal, QC

Like a spaghetti western set in a desolate metropolis, Maica Mia lurch forward with grandeur and gloom. Often running beyond the seven minute mark, the band's ruminative tracks pair mournful, reaching vocals with decayed, slowcore guitar lines. It all feels like a smouldering standoff between misery and epiphany.
