Static of the Gods, if you need a reference, sounds like Mistle Thrush [my favorite 90s Boston band] w/ a grungy pop miasma. Swirly compilations, churning guitar, and the intense Miki Berenyi-esque vocals, angelic and lilting, of Jen Johnson (voice, guitar and keyboard) propel Static of the Gods beyond sublime. Johnson experiments with various vocal nuances to convey many emotions and layers. On the band’s sophomore album Knowledge Machine, listeners will be engulfed in the exquisite collection of songs. A dark and melancholic undercurrent separates the music of Static of the Gods from other indie bands. Unique, heartbreaking songs with a silver lining. Knowledge Machine is the sort of album you listen to from beginning to end and then repeat and repeat.
