    Beehive - Breathing The Bad Smoke

    Beehive is the work of Zach Hinkle, a former member of the Athens, Georgia music scene who recently relocated to New York City. His new album Sun & Scream is a complex collage of experimental tunes solo-produced in his own apartment. Each piece is simple and repetitive as a whole, but you can certainly appreciate the assembly. “Breathing The Bad Smoke,” for instance, features a very flat, slow drum beat to play off a gracious guitar riff that sounds like it’s coming from across the room. The instrumentals are soaked in a grainy noise and bass tone that increasingly reverberates in your skull until a sharp piano part kicks in at just the right moment to pierce the pressure. Buried within the haze are Hinkle’s very distant and deep vocals. If you like what you hear, look for this new album out at the end of the month!
