Signal to Snow Ratio

Grandaddy

Four tracks of rain-soaked, analog melancholy. A bridge between lo-fi intimacy and the grand, tech-weary landscapes of their most famous work.

It's the sound of a rainy day spent inside a garage full of broken synthesizers and old memories.

A quiet, rain-slicked meditation on memory and the ghosts of old technology.
