Mote EP

Encyclopedia : M : MO : MOT : Mote EP


The Mote EP is a one-off release on GSL from Omaha, NE's The Faint. Featuring 4 tracks, this vinyl-only release showcases the band's distinctive ability to craft timeless electronic pop and invoke a sense of atmosphere and purpose devoid in much contemporary "indie rock". "Dust" (featuring Bright Eyes) is a concise, mesmerizing dose of electronic beats and icy synth; remixes of "Passives" and "Victim Convenience" (by Psyrendust and The Lack, respectively) see The Faint pushed, pulled and manipulated in a manner not unlike the aural chop-shops of Kid 606 or Disc; the 4th track is a cover of the haunting Sonic Youth track "Mote".
