CS + Kreme

Man do i still miss Australian band Devastations.  The moody indie-rock trio disbanded in 2010, but their members still pop up from time to time on different projects, so i guess that will just have to do.  The latest is the upcoming new album from CS + Kreme, the CS being Conrad Standish of Devastations.  Along with Sam Karmel, the duo make experimental folk, drone, and noise.  Check out the beautifully quiet and somber "Corey" below and pre-order the upcoming new album "The Butterfly Drinks the Tears of the Tortoise" here from The Trilogy Tapes.

CS + Kreme

In the '00s, i was a big fan of Australian band Devastations.  They've been broken up for over a decade now, but i do my best to keep track of the former members and their current projects.  One of those former members is Conrad Standish, currently making strange music with fellow Aussie Sam Karmel as the experimental duo CS + Kreme.  It's hard to really pin down the sound the duo create, a hypnotic mix of electronic, folk, drone, ambient, and more.  New album "Orange" is out now.  Get it here from The Trilogy Tapes and listen to "Would You Like a Vampire" featuring vocals from UK folk singer Bridget St John below.
