Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating firmly on the periphery of the late-90s shoegaze revival, the Michigan quartet crafts heavily sedated, profoundly ethereal guitar pop. The deeply washed-out vocals and oceanic swells of reverb create a remarkably gentle, lethargic atmosphere that blurs the lines between post-rock texture and ambient soundscaping.

Genres

Descriptors: atmospheric, dreamy, hushed, reverb-heavy, minimal
