"I'm will try to avoid hyperbole here, but it's going to be difficult. You see, I'm enjoying Condo's 306 Duress Avenue EP enough to start thinking of words like brilliant, audacious, and maybe even shocking. It's really that good."

...It's a mixed tonic of semi-ethereal post-punk pop and jangly, angular sounds with matter-of-fact vocal stylings. This particular song begins with dreamy harmonics, then the guitar wails sort of forlornly only to deliver the song full circle to its harmonic origins. All the while, it never loses its sense of identity...

... expansively textured and fresh sound which is, all in all, a nice change of pace from all the indie rock malaise...

CONDO
306 Duress Ave
(self released)

If you lived in Gainesville in the early 1990s you got the chance to see a lot of great music. Most bands that played then are defunct and members have left town to pursue careers and families. That is exactly what happened to the members of SUPERBALL, a Gainesville band from that decade. Their music was steeped in Seattle fuzz that appealed to many grunge aficionados, but also won over critics and indie rock shoegazers. Together. Ryan McNeil and Dan Falt, guitarist and bass player, have been living in New York City and formed CONDO. Gone are the Pacific Northwest subtleties, replaced with echoes of the Bowery and the UK post-punk movement. On their debut EP they channel Mark E. Smith, Robert Quine, and the rhythmic interplay of Fugazi. Singer James Roe, a UK import, tells tales of his existence in a city filled with temptation, booze and money. Lush keyboards and dreamy vocal harmonies by Mary Ann Falt fill the gaps. Paredes’ drums provide a hypnotic repetetive trance reminiscent of early New Order. CONDO definitely succeeds at blending its variety of influences and forging a new sound that fits in well with their New York contemporaries. You can hear the songs at www.condotheband.com .

...For whatever reason, I thought I probably wouldn't like these tracks from this band Condo, but once again, I was wrong. They've got some charm, they do, and I can't deny it. This site said of them: "on their debut EP they channel Mark E. Smith, Robert Quine, and the rhythmic interplay of Fugazi." Again, seems a pretty damn good description....

They might remind you of Bloc Party; at their best, Condo's new- or no-wave blasts can shake hips with the cream of the dance punk revivalist crop.
