"S.T.R.E.E.T. D.A.D." (11/05/2002) Rock & Pop Out Hud, KrankyOut Hud: Phyllis Forbes (guitar, bass guitar, drums); Molly Schnick (violin, cello, keyboards); Tyler Pope, Nic Offer (bass guitar). Personnel: Tyler Pope (guitar, drum programming); Nic Offer (acoustic guitar, keyboards). Recording information: Pus Cavern; Rare Book Room. Out Hud could be described a number of ways in indie-speak, such as "What Tortoise might sound like if their avant-garde jazz and minimalism fixations were replaced by oddball disco and post-punk." Or maybe "Chamber post-punk that shares nothing in common with the Meters-mimic of 5ive Style and the Beastie Boys." Crazier yet, people who caught all the references in LCD Soundsystem's "Losing My Edge" might use a phrase like "This Heat meets Arthur Russell." Despite these comparisons and anti-comparisons, Out Hud is unique, and not just in the indie sense. An instrumental unit who could get by on their nimble, intricate rhythms alone, they adorn their brisk machine-drum patterns and low-slung basslines with a wide variety of instrumentation. Spirals of guitar; patters of bongos, drawn-out notes, and percussive jabs of cello; and waves of keyboards -- both textural and confrontational -- drift in and out of a jumble that often thrives on dub production techniques (reverb, echoing snares, unexpected surges of sound). This, the group's bizarrely titled full-length debut (stranger still are the song titles), is an incredibly creative fusion of several styles of music that winds up sounding like no one else in particular. The obvious references to inspirations are few and few between, and any comparisons have more merit in approach than sound. This 40-minute series of fluid, labyrinthine passages is equally cerebral and hip-shaking, with pulsating grooves and webs of intricate adornments tangling for an otherworldly type of psychedelic dance music. People who had been snapping up this group's vinyl releases prior to this long-awaited full-length can prove once and for all that the slobbering wasn't a put-on. ~ Andy Kellman

"Let Us Never Speak of It Again" (01/25/2005) Rock & Pop Out Hud, KrankyWith 2005's LET US NEVER SPEAK OF IT AGAIN, the stunning follow-up to their debut, S.T.R.E.E.T. D.A.D., Out Hud have achieved the near impossible. In a time overflowing with post-punk, disco, house, and techno references, Out Hud have made an original, engaging, and utterly distinctive dance record. Even though the band's aesthetic takes several pages from early-'80s post-punk (New Order) and funk (ESG), and owes a sizable debt to contemporary electronica, Out Hud puts these elements together in a way that is fresh and exacting. Dub production techniques ricochet across streaming electronic beats, keyboard lines mesmerize, while the warm pulse of bass and guitar anchor the grooves and--a new addition here--the voices of Out Hud's two female members add breathy, singsong accompaniment. From the album's first single, "One Life to Leave," a burbling, house-inflected track, through the acid-jazz funk of "Old Nude" to the insanely catchy "How Long" and the psychedelic "2005: A Face Odyssey," Out Hud creates intricately interlocking webs of glittering, brainy grooves. Superb mixing (which gives every cut the textured and layered feel of a 12-inch dance track) tops it all off, making Out Hud's sophomore release one of strongest indie dance albums in ages.
