I don't know what I expected from a group called Autistic
Daughters, but this certainly certainly wasn't it. Such a
provocative name suggests headbanger rock. Instead, what you get is
atmospheric acoustic guitar and quiet vocals, a kind of background
music that belies the complexity of the performances here. This is
about as uncommercial a collection of tracks as I've encountered
anywhere. And not just because the music doesn't scream, "Hey, look
at me!" The combination of not really hummable melodies and long
tracks (the shortest is five and a half minutes; the longest almost
twelve) means that mainstream radio isn't likely to highlight these
guys. Just as well that I stopped listening to mainstream radio a
long time ago.
