Electronic Sound Constructions
©Snapshot. UK, 1997.
‟Crescent is a project launched by Matt Jones of Bristol's Movietone. Their debut singles, 'Lost' (Planet, 1994) and 'Sun' (Planet, 1994), sound like stately garage-rock played by Spacemen 3. Jones plays guitar and fronts a rock quartet on 'Now' (Atavistic, 1996), that serves more convoluted compositions, such as 'Exit and Light Will Pour From Our Eyes'. The aim of the band is not clear, though, as their noise-rock does not coalesce in a "style". And Jones' vocals are not exactly engaging (a dull imitation of Joy Division's Curtis).
The question mark remains after listening to 'Electronic Sound Constructions' (Snapshot, 1997), which is de facto Jones' first solo album. Jones plays all instruments and employs tape loops, but the music is amateurish and pointless, especially for ambitious tracks like the 14-minute 'Philicorda Loops' and the industrial mess 'Quince Flowers'.‟
