Action at a Distance – the second album by Bay Area’s Mist and Mast – builds upon the sound created by Jason Lakis on the stellar ‘07 self-titled debut with a full band providing a richer sound to their whip-smart, melodic indie rock. While the musical direction is still centered around Lakis’ understated vocals, winding melodies, unique guitar hooks and intelligent songwriting, on Action at a Distance Lakis collaborates with bandmates Craig Adams (guitar), Bill French (drums), and Alex Steinhart (bass) for a sound that is more akin to their live shows. Action at a Distance is another excellent indie rock album from one of my favorite Bay Area bands.
