Album Notes & Community Reviews

After a nearly decade-long gap since their initial formation, New Zealand indie pioneers The Clean finally released their debut full-length, 'Vehicle'. The album is an incredibly energetic, raw collection of lo-fi jangle pop, featuring highly melodic, bittersweet hooks and distinctly playful, abstract slacker rock charm.
