Manifest on CD

Manifest is their fourth full-length, and the long-awaited follow-up to Cheesie's critically acclaimed Overnight which was made the Best of 2001's list by the New York Times. Cheesie continue their musical exploration of the railway environment, this time focusing on the freight trains & railway corridors that simultaneously divide & connect America's landscapes. It's an exhilarating journey through a realm of extremes, where stillness is shattered by jarring motion & cacophony subsides into silence. Using guitars, bass, drums, signal processing, samples, analog synths, organs, horns, & other instruments, they capture the interplay between the manufactured & natural worlds that railroads inhabit. 11 tracks. Plug Research. 2008.
