Black Vinyl Shoes

Recorded entirely on a four-track tape machine in a living room, this self-released effort is a pioneering document of the American DIY power pop movement. Its delightfully lo-fi, noisy aesthetic perfectly complements the pristine, Beatles-esque vocal harmonies and razor-sharp melodic hooks. The underground success of the record eventually led to a major label contract, cementing their status as unsung heroes of alternative pop.
