god of war is Douglas Dulgarian of They Are Gutting A Body of Water and members of Hooky sliding out of the blown shoegaze wreckage and into something softer, lazier, weirder, still wired to the same pleasure-centre prank. Pop songs and melancholy instrumentals are turned into glitchy mid-2000s bedroom drift, all MTV afterglow and console-menu heartache. It has that odd catchy TAGABOW thing, but with the drop-tuned concrete and Slint worship removed, leaving pure Y2K carpet-fuzz euphoria. Little melodies loiter like they forgot why they came in. A sweet, busted, electronic slacker-pop side, grinning through the loading screen.
