Parade are an indie rock band who currently reside in Atlanta but originally hail from Athens, Georgia. The Answer Me EP is the bands 4th release following a self released album, EP and last years split 7" single with Aviator.Any indie rock band who state that the Aphex Twin and the Gang Of Four are amongst their influences is fine by me although you will hear a trace of neither here.
Instead we get five slabs of melodic indie rock which is sometimes minimalistic, sometimes atmospheric. The songs are tight, consistent and Carrie Hodges vocals are pretty impressive throughout although sometimes it just sounds a bit too polished for my liking. The big surprise is on Booths were they come over all Sky Larkin on us. It's an EP I wouldn't turn off but the big question is there enough on here to warrant me playing it again?
