Bad Veins is Benjamin Davis and live member, “Irene,” a 1973 Pioneer reel-to-reel recorder that handles the duo’s lush soundscapes onstage. The project is best described as an opulent hodgepodge of sounds and aesthetics, including warm analog ambience, busted electronic textures, symphonic and choral bits, and stately arrangements and compositional conventions that recall indie Charlie And The Chocolate Factory as much as they recall the blissed-out orchestral indie-pop stylings of producer Dave Fridmann’s iconic work with Mercury Rev and the Flaming Lips.
