First glance this sounds like punky poppy raw rock but after it sinks in you realize its closer to psyche or dream noise pop cranked out loud. More like MBV on speed, a little less disheveled.. Guitar, bass, drums w/ somewhat revery male vocs. Layers of guitar and noisey feedback and unrelenting beats. Great fun for fans of Ramones and MBV alike, garagey pop of Best Coast or Henry’s Dress, Swell Maps.

1) (2:13) upbeat Ramonesy punk w/poppy element
2) FCC
3) (2:01) chuggin upbeat punky
4) (2:34) fuzz bass and simple surfy garage rock beat, fun
5) (1:38) feedback drenched upbeat poppy punk, very Henrys Dress, early MBV
6) (3:04) tom tom beat w/ simple guitar chords, fun stuff
7) (3:13) “I’m neurotic” driving tom tom beat soars, with really nice mash of beach boys at end
8) (2:50) very punky, gallopy, “your love makes me nauseous”
9) (2:43) “ooh oohs” are very Ramones, melodic voc line w/ driving rock, nice lyrics about the mall, consumption
10) (2:52) very shoo-bop, 50’s dance Ramones
11) (2:24) great lyric hook “I do I do I do”
12) (1:19) galloping tom tom beat
13) FCCs
14) (2:41) slowest track, ballady noisy dirge, long feedback symposium and movie sample at end, nice
