ROD describe their act as "a DIY new wave/post punk band consisting of two lovers from Kentucky." Rot and Fruition, the band's new album, is a fine example of their sound, which prominently features no wave and other nearby experimental styles as sources of inspiration.
A winter day in Lexington, Kentucky, with a bright sky and the cold inspired album highlight, Yr Song, which leaves an all around gloomy, yet, hopeful impression. A lyrical topic based on the challenge to understand oneself while binding together self importance and love is equally divisive. Yr Song is an expressive and vibrant song which displays the new wave factors of the band and sounds incredibly sleek while maintaining a high level of gritty authenticity and DIY characteristics.
