Miastenia

Milan, Italy's Ovo are a two piece using guitar/violin cellos and drums that dump a toxic sludge with an unmistakable butterscotch scent. This sludge is in line with contemperous doom salesmen such as Boris and the Melvins, with the addition of vox stylings that take this record to a new place entirely. The sounds coming from Stephania Pedretti's mouth as she sings go from lullaby sweet to terrifyingly raw in short intervals. Instrumentation on this platter is diverse, with guitars, bass, drums being added to the mix as well as music store stand-by's like harmonica, piano, and cello.
