Music Review referred by One Submit - Cute Funeral by The Sleeping Cliffs #Rock

 

Based in the sprawling Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, ‘The Sleeping Cliffs’ is a solo studio project from multi-instrumentalist Todd Glidewell. Combining elements of indie, post-rock, alternative, funk, jazz-fusion and ambient electronica, The Sleeping Cliffs produce emotive, cinematic, and instrumental songs. 
Though not boxed in by any one genre, the songs share an undertow of gritty bass lines, layers of fuzzy guitar, unexpected brass, and big rock drums. ‘Cute Funeral” is an unkempt instrumental amalgam of Electronic Rock, Left-field IDM and good old fashion Blues Rock. There’s hints of Ratatat, The Black Keys, and Jon Spencer reflected throughout the song, but its own voice loudly clamors through it’s rhythmic mix of funk bass, bar room pianos, Dixieland horns and fuzz drenched guitars.
