… “I feel like there's not a lot of like grace in modern technology. There's something beautiful in the marriage of analog and digital that I really like the look, sound, and feel of.” - Sean Henderson (Bass/Vocals) - https://www.reverie-online.com/interviews/fencing …
Fencing’s Fencing Wikipedia feels like logging onto the internet before it learned how to sell things to us. Fencing Wikipedia is a humming blue screen amongst the daze of endless modern algorithms, a buffering page reminding us of the digital quiet of a slower, smaller web. Through the whirl of hazy guitars and tender confessions, there’s a sense of retreat. A search for the comfort of simpler times, when connection felt more personal. Escapism not through fantasy, but through recollection, a gentle return to the early internet’s handmade warmth and the fragile humanity it once promised.
Fencing Wikipedia blends early internet nostalgia with themes of boredom, unease, anxiety, and a sense of regretful yearning. Fencing is a fusion of noise and post rock - littered with dynamic ranges, irregular structure, and harmonic dissonance. The project crafts complex soundscapes that convey melancholic emotions through tender, fragile passages punctuated by sudden bursts of overdriven entropy. Each piece unfolds like a fragmented memory - glitching, swelling, and fading - evoking the feeling of searching for meaning in digital ruins. The result is music that feels both intimate and distant, nostalgic yet unfamiliar, caught between connection and isolation.
The energy is unsettling, like fog on a dark road, winding down into a complete unknown. That's the space Fencing occupies so well; a raw unkempt unknown. Each fork in the road divulging into either total sonic excess or screeching to an abrupt end delivered with intricate precision and subdued desperation. Isaac Tate (Guitar and Vocals) seems to take a more laissez-faire approach to lyric writing, not focusing on specific themes or meanings but emphasizing phrasing and expressive delivery. That looseness feels intentional, echoing the album’s greater philosophy: that meaning is not to be imposed, but uncovered, like a scent pulling you back to a specific moment you thought you’d forgotten.
In the end, Fencing Wikipedia isn’t some grand reclamation of the past, and maybe that’s the point. Its nostalgia doesn’t feel clean or comforting—it’s messy, conflicted, more about disillusionment than escape. The record captures what it means to live in a digital landscape that’s too fast, too curated, too numb, yet still find yourself longing for sincerity inside it. Fencing doesn’t try to fix that contradiction; they just sit in it. The result isn’t hopeful or cynical, just human—an acknowledgment that meaning, like connection, is harder to hold onto the longer we stay online.
