hey folks!

I've posted our stuff on here before and figured I'd share this new one off our next album (coming out August 3). I think some of you might really dig it!

the album was mixed and mastered in MONO and recorded straight to 2" tape. it's a pretty diverse collection of songs with a ton of influences (everything from The Beatles to My Bloody Valentine and Joan Of Arc to John Coltrane), but this track definitely falls heavily into the power pop/dreampop side of things.

Lots of Normal channel Vox chime, Tele/Rickenbacker jangle, and a bit of reverse reverb + tremolo swirl happening here. Enjoy!

hey folks, we just released another track from the upcoming album (out 8/3)! this one is the album opener and is one of Jojo's tunes (the other guitarist/singer in the band). definitely a more punk-y vibe and there's a pretty crazy Coltrane-inspired sax solo too! dig it:
