As moody and murky as Minks’ debut album is overall, the Brooklyn-based duo isn’t this week’s Joy Division. More like a couple of Cure fans with an appreciation for the thin line between darkness and light. So while a single like “Funeral Song” may be about summer’s last gasps, frontman Sean Kilfoyle sounds like he’s dancing on the ashes of our discontent. Shadows lurk around the corners of “Ophelia” as well, but they’re basked in brilliant synth bursts and manic melodies at every turn. And then there’s “Cemetary Rain,” a partly cloudy pop song that could slip in between the Smiths, New Order and Echo & The Bunnymen on the Pretty In Pink soundtrack without anyone noticing. Like a long walk in the middle of the night, this is music that wipes your mind clean, creeping into every crevice like a bank of gauzy, long-forgotten memories.
