Elusive Arizona is a solo post-rock act, obviously, not from Arizona. The Pennsylvania-based musician created this short EP with two longer tracks filled with everything the post-rock genre has to offer and entitled this work, very fittingly, The Best of... Crescendocore!
The artist doesn't hide his intentions, quite straightforwardly introducing the short album by saying "let me introduce to you a two-piece representation of the whole genre". And indeed, anything you'd expect from a good post-rock can be found here. Perhaps there's a dose of irony in his work ("crescendocore" as a term sure sounds very ironic but also on point), but it doesn't change the fact that for a post-rock lover, the songs here are enjoyable to say the least. There is an intriguing introduction with some atmosphere-generating spoken word pieces, there's a real blizzard of guitar sounds gradually devouring it, there are bright keys illuminating the more peaceful moments in And Again and, finally, a crescendo that does justice to the album's title, one that feels to be endless and consuming everything that stands against it. Even if this is a joke, I love it.
