AcetyleneAust

Acetylene was a 4-piece from Melbourne, Australia. Wide-ranging influences included rock, pop & trip hop (Pixies, Nirvana, Screaming Trees, Portishead), French pop music (Francoise Hardy, Serge Gainsbourg) and earlier singer-songwriters (Tim Buckley, Nico). While the rhythm section borrowed elements from electronic and dance music, their sound remains firmly a rock experience, especially in the use of guitar feedback. Their instrumental tracks and interludes often have an introspective, cinematic quality. The Form Guide (Melbourne, Australia) said of Acetylene: "..this band has a few ideas here that are right on the money. Echoes of the Velvet Underground, Stereolab, Big Star (without sounding like any of them). Love the Tarnation style desperate longing vocals." "Indie guitar rock of the chugga chugga variety (ie. Bats, Stereolab). A couple of super-catchy songs." The band was initially and briefly known as Anodyne. https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/acetyleneaust/sentences-disguise-everyones-deceit-2
