Faults Follow

2013 release, the third album from the San Francisco-based Indie band. Recorded over an unusually stressful period for the band (family members with cancer, death, rehab, and divorce), there was a desire to abandon previously established templates and try something new. Paranoid inner-vacuum micro-dub and ruminative post-space hypno-drone? the first Carta album to feature vocals throughout, the band soaked in influence from Young Marble Giants, Disco Inferno, and latter day Hood, with electronic elements giving lift to the songs, and members swapped instrumental duties around as the songs called for it. The Faults Follow was recorded by the band at home and at Studio 3431, and was mixed by Jay Pellicci (the Drift, Deerhoof, Death Cab for Cutie) at Tiny Telephone in San Francisco.
