Electronic indie rock/pop. The solo project of Johnny Lynch, a bearded lad, who lives on a tiny island off the coast of Scotland with a population of 105. Zany percussion, shimmery vocal effects, and freak folk elements abound. Recommended for fans of Animal Collective, Dan Deacon, Panda Bear, and the Pinker Tones. FCC: 8 Try: 2, 4, 6, 7 (1.) (4:27) Drilling drum beat with passionate vocals and spacey effects (2.) (5:25) Upbeat and catchy with an echoey chorus and crunchy blown-out guitars (3.) (3:16) Crooned lyrics and gentle happy-go-lucky electronic plodding (4.) (3:21) Spazzy beat with snazzy electro elements (5.) (4:05) Midtempo with a gothic, industrial vibe (6.) (2:57) Shimmery and lush. Gentle vocals and resonating chimes. Walden Pond-core (7.) (3:45) Melodic and folky with bright keyboard riffs, bird samples, and loose percussion. Reminds me a lot of Animal Collective (8.) (3:54) FCC. Frenzied with fuzzy guitar (9.) (3:51) Stompy with squealing guitar and washed-out vocals (10.) (4:01) Bouncy weirdo rock with chipmunk vocal effects | ||
