Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut solo project from Deerhunter guitarist Lockett Pundt heavily leans into his penchant for massive, immersive guitar textures. Named after a teenage band he formed with Bradford Cox, the record washes delicate, nostalgic pop melodies in incredibly dense layers of fuzz, reverb, and tape hiss. It stands as a beautifully obscured, introverted love letter to classic 1990s shoegaze aesthetics.
