In late 2005 SubAudible Hum released
their debut full-length album entitled "Everything
You Heard Is True". It was a dark, venomous
abrasion on the guitar format that also managed
to make time for sprawling sonic scenery and downbeat,
melancholic intricacy. The record gained SubAudible
Hum immediate national radio rotation including
a spot on Triple J's Next Crop campaign.
SubAudible Hum write from that mysterious
void between emotive art and didactic thesis.
The subject matter is always of paramount importance
but never at the expense of listening pleasure,
in fact SubAudible Hum may just have found the
harmonious middle ground between the two. Any
modern day themes of global politics, dirty economics,
fundamental agendas, and social degradation are
always communicated with music, never using it
as a soapbox.
Stepping into 2006 SubAudible Hum
have a whole new take. Having purged much of their
structural and self-imposed stylistic constraints
the SubAudible Hum sound is now less definable
than ever. Their sophomore effort "In Time
For Spring, On Came The Snow" swings from
drawn-out orchestral opuses to quasi-UK indie
trash to dam bursting, almost trip hop anthems.
With this release, as always, SubAudible Hum are
exploring every crevasse of their musical ambitions.
