Crossbow Sanchez combine some chintzy retro keyboards with some emotive guitars and a Disintegration-era Cure style drum beat.
'Footsteps On Io' is an instrumental with great guitar work and strong grasp of dynamics. The keyboards, which under their own steam would sound utterly terrible, collide with the beauty of the guitars in a strangely satisfying juxtaposition.
This is indeed an unusual prospect, but with this song, Crossbow Sanchez hits the mark.
