Fronted by twins Aku and Akwetey O.T., who learned music theory from jazz great Yusef Lateef, Dragons of Zynth mash familiar styles into intriguing, irregular shapes, with melancholy psychedelia, romantic soul, itchy hip-hop, and frazzled hard rock all subjected to creative abuse. The echo-heavy production and cerebral arrangements sometimes suck the life from the songs, but the gorgeously sludgy "Closer" proves they can generate emotional heat without sacrificing weirdness.
