Sylvia Ivy, Modern Cults, The Knife Kickers [CT]
About
Sylvia Ivy grew up Portland but today records and gigs in Chicago, weaving influences like Elliot Smith and Big Thief into moth-bitten yet living songs—songs of intimacy, recovery and transition. In them chasms open, flight patterns buzz, banquets are held and road trips start and end. Like the margin filled sprawl of a xeroxed journal, Sylvia’s music is a scratchy, needle-nosed slate of personal mythology. ‘What is this perfect mess?’ she asks on “Anonymous”. Modern Cults is power pop trash pop slacker pop rock. With continuing inspiration from Sparklehorse and an added dose of just cryptic enough songwriting from the likes of Stephen Malkmus and Alex G, Modern Cults is urgent and complex but easily accessible with melodies catchier than a cold. The Knife Kickers (solo) are on tour from Connecticut promoting “an acoustic album” out on Redscroll Records in early Spring
