With little more than a bass, drum machine, and deadpan vocals, Sneaks, a.k.a.
Eva Moolchan, makes minimalist music that takes up space-something she
herself has made a point of doing in the male-heavy Washington, D.C., DIY
punk scene that has been her home. Moolchan's compelling songwriting,
along with the fervid energy of her shows, prompted breakout D.C. label
Sister Polygon to release her 2015 debut Gymnastics, which Merge reissued in
2016 November.
It's a Myth builds on Sneaks' playfully stark approach to post-punk, which, as
her hometown City Paper described it, causes listeners to go "from curious
to provoked to hungry." Hungry, in part, because the new album clocks in
at just 18 minutes of 10 taut, captivating tracks (but still a feast compared
to Gymnastics' 14 minutes). It also adds Jonah Takagi and Ex Hex/Helium
frontwoman Mary Timony, who recorded the album at Timony's D.C. studio.
"She's got art in her brain," Timony has said of Moolchan. "Her brain is
making beautiful stuff."
