Duster's unique blend of fuzzy guitars, bargain synths, muffled percussion, and hushed vocals anticipated chillwave, mumblecore, and corecore, elegantly illustrating the holy trinity of slacker vices: cigarettes, coffee, and the weed supreme.
Orbweaving combines the best parts of Midwife's "heaven metal" and Vyva Melinkolya's sentimental, classic shoegaze in a way that distinctively elevates both artists.
At it's core, It's Closeness, It's Easy is about stepping into middle age and taking stock. It confronts the reality of living with the hand that's been dealt and searching for meaning in what remains. Loud 'amplifier worship' doomgaze for cat people.
Seamlessly blending shoegaze, post punk, new wave, industrial and noise with unparalleled depth and weight, the album was originally released by Enemies List Home Recordings founded by HANL members Dan Barrett and Tim Macuga.
