At a time when we are wading through seas of information, Spadaro (Morning Spy, Foxtail Somersault, and Tracing Figures), Baker (Tracing Figures) and Loftin (Morning Spy, Imperial Highway, Astral and solo projects) have come together to create a beacon of sound that reminds us of our humanity, our emotions, and our connection to one another. Named after the widespread impact of content overload, the San Francisco-based group Drowning Effect pulses with the angsty influences of 70s psych bands and 90s alt. rockers: think Blue Cheer and The Stooges meet Jane's Addiction and Filter.

Rising from the deep is a sound that cuts through the age of digital noise in Drowning Effect's second album, “Techniculture”. The outfit abandons a more stream of consciousness-style for a very structured, succinct story that begins and ends with what feels like a crash of lightning. Simple rhythms overlayed with distorted guitars and potent, echoing lyrics will have you orbiting The Sun in 'Bright Lights' and then slam you back down to Earth with 'Gun.'
