Who Was Alexander Graham Bell

Death And Consolation is without a doubt a weighty album title. And, Austin, TX trio The Well is among the heaviest heavy psych bands in existence. So when Riding Easy says that there's even more darkness and intensity to the band's third album than previous efforts, take heed. It's a deep sea diving bell of enveloping heaviness and longing. While The Well continue to walk an intriguing line between authentic early '70s doom / heavy psych and frayed weirdness of dark folk-especially with their haunting unison male / female vocals-this new album also adds the stark vibe of post-punk acts like Joy Division and early The Cure.
