MH-252 Lymbyc Systym - Love Your Abuser  Love Your Abuser, the debut full-length from Arizona’s Lymbyc Systym, is a sprawling post-rock epic. Brothers Jared and Micheal Bell have created an album of ten distinct pieces that capture an emotional range not often seen in instrumental music. From the playful to the sublime, Jared creates the core of Love Your Abuser with layer upon layer of vintage keyboards and effects. Michael’s virtuoso drum work and tasteful programming add the perfect complement to the melodies. The album maintains a consistent sound throughout, yet each composition stands on its own. Without uttering a word, Lymbyc Systym have made one of the most powerful statements in the Mush Records catalog. |

| An opening slot on the Album Leaf's fall tour is your first clue about what to expect from Lymbyc Systym: spacey, atmospheric – and lyric-less – soundscapes. (Jimmy Lavelle makes a guest spot on the record, too.) I've said it before, but all-instrumental music is typically a challenge to my patience. But with Lymbyc, there's great attention to detail, as most electronic-laptop pop requires. It isn't senseless, sloppy jamming, but articulate, mindful translation of ones and zeroes into something a little more tangible. - So Much Silence |
