Heavily produced indie folk-rock, slick, but usually slick in an interesting way. Lyrics are like "They Might be Giants" or maybe "The Mountain Goats", but the sound is more like "Mercury Rev". Typically, each track starts with some choppy, tweaked samples: instant segue from almost anything. Faves: (1) "I was shocked to know/ that I'm not the only one/ who knows that we're headed for the sun..." An oddly affectionate depiction of the late night talk show radio mindset. Namedrops Art Bell. Closes: "-- we are all doomed." (7) Jungle-like intro -> boring guitar fill -> decent quiry pop. (10) A typical track: slow psychedelic whispered vocals: "My head is all off kilter & spins around and around... like Linda Blair" | ||
