Mixing in cello gives this instrumental rock trio a rich and memorable sound. The cellist and bassist is Dominique Davison, also of
A Minor Forest and
Threnody Ensemble.
33.3 was together two years before releasing this debut and they prove a cohesive unit as a result. Ranging in mood from dark and brooding to bright and happy,
33.3 is a varied and sophisticated record.
33.3 can be compared to the best of the Chicago-based instro-rock scene, falling between 5 Style and
Tortoise. ~ Tom Schulte
