The Invisible Deck is often dark and scattered, and doesn't provide the rush of instant gratification that Three Fingers and Purely Evil do, but its growth and promise are more exciting in their own right.
-
Alternative PressHella fun. [May 2006, p.166]
-
MagnetA taut, 40-minute affair with no filler. [#71, p.110]
-
MojoShows just how focused their rock'n'roll attack has become. [May 2006, p.105]
-
UrbAn album full of budding promises. [May 2006, p.95]
-
Invisible Deck is what you like to see from a still-developing band--a work that extends the band’s range without sacrificing what made it good in the first place.
-
UncutTheir sound is now driven by a dark undertow, with heavy psych-rock and muscly R&B inflections. [May 2006, p.119]
-
The Sisters always kick ass live, but The Invisible Deck is the first time they've managed to do justice to their tough, slippery, muscular sound in the studio.
-
Recalling X's boisterous male/female mantras and careering boogie by way of Sonic Youth's frosty downtown cool, The Invisible Deck is a confident and polished record built of cavernous drums, simply slithering riffs, filthy bass grooves, and high-energy dynamics.
-
Q MagazineTheir jittery new-wave revivalism isn't unique, but their sparse rock attack still yields rewards. [May 2006, p.130]
-
So much here rests on formulaic indie tropes.
-
The fun is gone. On The Invisible Deck, the Rogers Sisters sound like just another band.
