The Portland duo Soft Metals present their debut self titled LP on Captured Tracks. Ian Hicks and Patricia Hall, music and voice, have combined to make a mechanical, robotic yet very human record and it’s the result of the by-play at work between Hick’s machine like synths, effects and beats and Hall’s ethereal and dreamy vocals. The album includes 10 synth-pop track.
