2010, Double Phantom Records
VINYL FORMAT. Comes with a CD-R which includes a bonus song and remixes! Roman Photos have crafted a sound that is by turn a romantic yet urban blend of various kinds of electronic music. Taking cues from genres like disco, synth-pop, techno and trip-hop, they bring emotion to a genre more known for atmospheres and rhythm. The band recently released a free digital EP as well a 7" on Army of Bad Luck (run by Josh from Deerhunter), and now comes the release of the Decline/These Arms 7" via Double Phantom Records.
"Here's what's cool about this: the wistful vocals that float effortlessly above the music, the buzzing density of the entire song, the warm thump drawn out from minimal techno and into a more rock-based world. 'Decline' works because of its low-key unpretentious aspirations. It could easily be just another hazy dance track in a year full of hazy dance tracks, but the attention to detail - the little key pings and surprisingly confident vocals make it stand out." - The Fader
