the truth about dreaming is a one-man screamo band from michigan, and that's all i can really dig up about them.
the first song we have, titled "the ballad of jim joe kelly," is a 2 minute track that starts with a clean, sad riff, kinda reminiscent of some twinkle, before exploding into distortion-laden despair at the 50 second mark, accompanied by shrill, and desperate shrieks. wonderful song.
this next song's a bit more on the nose with the band's influences, i think. beginning with the cover art which is obviously a reference to jeromes dream's seeing means more, though musically this track doesn't sound much at all like jeromes dream. if i had to compare, i'd say this track sounds like a lot of fuzzy low fidelity skramz bands like mnwa, and makara, with a twinge of the clean, and softer parts of bands like the spirit of versailles. a frenzy of screams, and fuzz, supported by a kinda goofy, kinda endearing synth that cuts through the mix.
sick song.
this is the last song. has a really nice clean vocal section. again, a lot like the spirit of versailles, the khayembii communique, and kite flying society.
this is such a great band. the person behind it has a scene-grind project called cambodian heat which i'm very fond of too. but that's for a different time.
see you around.
