Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating distinctly within the darker margins of the legendary Flying Nun roster, 'Little Things' is a noisy, highly gothic-tinged foray into aggressive post-punk. The New Zealand outfit intentionally buries their underlying pop sensibilities beneath swirling layers of organ and tempestuous, highly distorted guitar fuzz. It successfully captures a remarkably somber, chaotic energy completely unique within the regional alternative scene.
