Corbu, Crayon Soul, Big Picnic Records

Indie rock sunset, tinges of electronica and epic/echoing short "extended jams". Accessible and easy. Good lyrics, cleanly mixed & well produced with pop song structures and stoner rock sensibilities. [Note: only the first 7 tracks would read, original CD was busted.] RIYL Local Natives, Tame Impala

* 01 2:09 Sirens - hazy sheens of clipped color, peaceful and tormented [intro]
* 02 4:27 Polygon Forest - electronica, echoing, vaguely epic, big
03 3:27 Neon Hallway - 80-s feeling synth funk, indie pop.
* 04 4:27 Through Emptiness - faded stoner jam, ends in sheens
* 05 6:19 Branches - sounds like local natives, echoing
06 4:48 Prism - sparse, unfocused, do not recommend
07 5:07 Better Better Off - mellow psych, starts quiet, harmonized voices.
08 4:39 Battles - winter-season/evening-time melodic rock
* 09 5:14 Marching Orders - lofi, mellow acoustic, —> electronic groove
* 10 4:36 Watchmaker - stoner indie-grunge jam
11 4:32 We Are Sound - happy little love tune transisions to psych jam, ends 10 seconds early
12 4:57 Dark Wave - atmospheric acoustic
