Oakland band Magic Me’s creatively named first two EPs embark from Interpol-esque post-punk on a journey to carve their own sound. EP1’s driving opening track, “Soft Cases,” is eager to reach its conclusion yet sounds beautiful all the way there. EP2 doesn’t offer anything quite as arresting, but maintains a high level of musicianship and vision.
