Press Reviews Cloister, one of the shining little gems of St. Louis music right now, plays a brand of fizzle pop that's dense with static and electronic washes but never sacrifices melodicism; Randall Roberts - The RiverFront Times Cloister performed first, from the Market in the Loop stage, and played their dissonant, pretty guitar-and-computer rock as the skies glowered like a Pink Floyd album cover and the rain began to fall. They began with a brilliant, twisted, perfectly deadpan cover of the Stones' "Torn and Frayed," a genius move that scored them untold Radar Station points. Producer/engineer Chris Deckard ran sound competently and inventively, making Cloister sound as good as any band playing outdoors near a major thoroughfare could possibly sound.
