Song of the Day - December 15, 2005

Charmparticles are a Portland quartet that will make you float away on a cumulus collection of vapor with their ethereal music. They are often compared to My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, and Ride. The track "Solvent" starts with a relatively uptempo beat and Adam Wayne's vocals, only to be joined by Pamela Rooney for some dream-like harmonies. There are layers of buoyant, swirling guitar work between fellow guitarists Adam Wayne and Sarah FitzGerald. The result is a beautiful, amalgamation of talent, music, and atmosphere.
