Album Notes & Community Reviews

Emerging from the Californian indie underground, this deeply overlooked ensemble crafted a remarkably beautiful, harmony-laden debut. 'Snap Crackle' utilizes ringing Rickenbacker guitars and pristine pop sensibilities to deliver an emotional, bittersweet take on mid-eighties jangle pop. The record's intricate, jangly arrangements heavily evoke the foundational elements of the paisley underground movement.
