>>ILL EASE
>>
>>'One of lo-fi's unsung heroes'ť Q ****
>>
>>'veering from unsweetened grunge-pop to groove-heavy guitar mantras, via
>>dryly skewed urban narratives.'ť Kerrang KKKK
>>
>>'making bad-ass bluesy rock that would make the whiskey-soaked Jennifer
>>Royal Trux proud.' iD
>>
>>"she's a flurry of intoxication" Plan B
>>
>>"Deep, circular grooves like a moldy peach playing patty-cake with can.
>>Bad times never seemed so good."
>>- Spin
>>
>>"Addictive, rhythm-heavy compositions infused with slippery vocals and
>>weaving guitars ... Sharp's songs achieve maximum bump and grind"
>>- Magnet
>>
>>"Filled with sly beats and overdubbed vocals, Ill Ease makes slick rock
>>music that sexily slip and trips on itself.... Musically catchy and
>>lyrically intriguing, layered enough to delight and confound"
>>- Venus
>>
>>Brooklyn New York’s Ill Ease is the solo band of multi instrumentalist
>>Elizabeth Sharp. After playing drums in New Radiant Storm King for 5
>>years. Sharp decided to go it alone in 1998 recording three albums for
>> the
>>Smilex label which brought her to the attention of Too Pure/Beggars
>> Group.
>>Her first UK album release "The Exorcist" came out in 2004 and "The After
>>After Party Party" EP followed in 2005.
>>
>>The Ill Ease live show is a fun fuelled whirlwind of deconstructed guitar
>>riffs, bass loops and drum licks performed as one seamless set with one
>>song melting in to the next Like Ill Ease recordings, many songs in the
>>live performance begin with the drums, are built up with bass loops and
>>fragmented guitar riffs, and then fully animated by cityscape sound
>>collages, aka found sounds, like car horns and police sirens. Elizabeth
>>Sharp runs the Ill Ease show from her drum stool front of stage
>> delivering
>>her unique slippery vocal style which crests over and contrasts with the
>>drums, guitar, bass, shaker, tambourine and everything else that rattles
>>and buzzes. Ill Ease manifest snippets of Chicagoan electric blues and
>>warped Rolling Stones b-sides all scratched and skipping to a New York
>>noise with a hip-hop beat. Sonic dissonance with recalcitrant vocal hooks
>>that won't go home. Woozy rhythms that won't stumble out until after
>>last call.
>>A one-piece that you’d swear was a 5 piece if you blurred your eyes.
