Review

Magnet (p.110) - "The ragingly askew piano work doesn't stop, nor does the frenetic, open-ended drumming. And it all sounds so clear....Cleanly produced and layered."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.102) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Even the psychedelic passages could be conceived as arguments for rumination in a sound-bite culture."

Title Note

Quasi: Sam Coomes (vocals, guitar); Janet Weiss (vocals, drums).

Recording information: Audible Alchemy, Portland, Oregon (2006).

Quasi continues its streak of smart, gloriously off-kilter indie-rock with 2006's WHEN THE GOING GETS DARK. The Pacific Northwest duo, consisting of former husband-and-wife team Sam Coomes (Heatmiser) and Janet Weiss (Sleater-Kinney), offer up 11 tracks ranging in style from lumbering rockers (the pounding "Alice the Goon") to lo-fi pop ditties (the harmony-laden "Peace and Love"). Weiss, with her hard-hitting percussion and subtle background vocals, is the group's secret weapon, leaving singer/multi-instrumentalist Coomes, armed with his plaintive yelp and elliptical lyrics, to handle all other duties (primarily bass and piano). Displaying a disdain for typical song structures and a penchant for distortion, DARK proves that Quasi, much to its credit, has no intention of making its restless sound more accessible.
