Concert / Indie, Rock & Shoegaze Horse Jumper of Love

© D.R.

Horse Jumper of Love thrive on patient and uncompromising songs. Thanks to frontman Dimitri Giannopoulos’ evocative lyrics and arrangements that suddenly turn from delicate to blistering, their music is full of intensity. While the Boston trio, which also includes bassist John Margaris and drummer James Doran, has stretched the fringes of indie, their latest, Disaster Trick, is their most immediate yet. 

Disaster Trick feels like a creative reset. The contrast between quiet and loud exists throughout the album but it’s animated by stark emotion and straightforward, timeless songwriting, stripped to the essentials: urgent, accessible arrangements full of catharsis.

For fans of:

Wednesday, Ovlov, Francis of Delirium

Horse Jumper of Love — Today’s Iconoclast”
« With Disaster Trick, Horse Jumper of Love subtly expand their sound without losing the instinctual, otherworldly interplay of their melodies, dizzying guitar lines and serpentine rhythms blurring together in a narcotic ooze. »
