Porcelain Raft – Something In Between

By Chris Gedos

The Brooklyn band Porcelain Raft proves once again that great things can happen by sticking to the shoegaze formula with zero deviation whatsoever. Most shitty shoegaze takes the formula and tinkers unnecessarily, but Porcelain Raft writes and performs shoegaze pop very, very well, and “Something in Between” is a great example of that, right down to the blatantly ambiguous title. The accompanying video is also of great merit, featuring an animated black dot dancing about the image throughout. With both Porcelain Raft and Damien Jurado making serious noise, shared label Secretly Canadian is having a mammoth 2k12 thus far.
