Review:
"White Sands Memories = A Nuclear Soundscape" is the third official release of Ancient Pistol, hailing from the Boston area. Guitarist Mike Feeney mixes his instrumentals with effects, delays, electronica, and dissonance to create his vision of the experience of a "nuclear soundscape". White Sands Memories consists of five parts, labeled as "The Tower", "The Device", "The Decision", "The Ignition", and "The Consequences". If the listener lets imagination take hold, a post-nuclear desolate, surreal world comes to life (or lack thereof) through a cacophony of sound. It would also play well in a spooky, sci-fi, Twilight Zone kind of genre. Ancient Pistol's "progressive, alternative, experimental" riffs jar the brain and activates the emotions. *** Worth a Listen
