Constant Image

Ron St Louis Great album. Some serious Flin Flon influence here too.

duckolokpolis This shit rips UwU Favorite track: XYZ.

Chromatic Dracula I think these folks bring something new and familiar to the table. I can’t stop listening to it! Favorite track: Sun Come And Golden.

Nairb Rednaxela This is a great album full of outstanding songs. Very difficult to pick a favorite because the whole thing flows so well. Not many bands make albums like this anymore i.e. meant to be listened to and enjoyed from start to finish. Favorite track: Skim Milk.

Will Crain I love the way the songs seem to change shape halfway through.

Mike D. tough call on fave track. i was lucky to see them open for breeders and i was an instant fan. flasher has such an 80's goth post punk kinda style. remind me of The Lords of the New Church. quirky tempo changes and really cool vocal harmonies. great live. a must see. Favorite track: Skim Milk.

about

Since they appeared with their self-titled, self-released EP back in 2016, Flasher has exuded both a clarity of intent and a radiant self-confidence. Critically applauded from the start, that initial release offered a clear blueprint. By turns razor sharp and woozy, skipping from shoegaze to punk and back again, it offered confirmation of a band whose wiry energy and melodic ease made them instantly arresting.

After the release of one more 7” (the wonderfully nervous stutter of Winnie), they quickly found themselves signed to Domino and have since been quietly working on their full-length debut - Constant Image. Recorded in 2017 across a few sleep-deprived weeks at Rare Book Room in Brooklyn, NY, it was produced by Nicolas Vernhes (Animal Collective, Deerhunter, War On Drugs) and crackles with invention. This isn’t the sound of a band finding their feet, it’s the rare sound of three people who know exactly what they want to achieve from the start.

From their hometown of Washington, DC, with its rich history of idiosyncratic underground music, Flasher - Taylor Mulitz on guitar, bassist Daniel Saperstein and drummer Emma Baker - has emerged at the forefront of a vibrant musical present. The three of them share vocal duties, sometimes harmonizing in gorgeous counter-melodies that sweep you away, sometimes taking turns to sing in nervous fits of emotion.

Constant Image is an album of anxiety and escape, but also one of euphoria and freedom. There’s weight and lightness here. It’s not often a debut album arrives in so complete a form but when it does you know you’ve got something special on your hands.
