Album Review
Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2013-11-06
Indie pop that relies heavily on big melodic choruses, very dream pop bringing to mind the best of Ride, MBV, The’ Faith Healers, Swirlies. Male/fem vocals trade if share. The “girl” songs feel slicker, esp in the choruses, replete with choral hooks. Male songs are a tad more noise-pop than indie pop. Overall a good, if not slick, indie pop band that would fit well in such a set. No FCCs detected.

1) (4:40) pretty dreamy, sorta slick melody and chorus
2) (046) tone bent guitar arpeggios and effects, super cool intro to next track (play together?)
3) (3:58) upbeat dream pop, male vocs in fron
4) (3:52) even more upbeat, pretty with fem vocs
5) (3:53) male vocs, again upbeat in a Ride dream pop way
6) (4:31) fem vocs, mellower but very Medicine
7) (4:50) kinda gross slick feel, avoid
8) (4:02) upbeat, earlier reminder of MBV Loveless
9) (4:08) jangley 80’s feel, fem vocs
10) (3:53) slick driving upbeat
11) (4:39) midpaced, fem fronted
12) (3:43) slow plod and dreaminess dilutes the saccharine melodies.
