Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally recorded single-handedly by teenager Dylan Baldi in his parents' Ohio basement, this EP is a masterclass in impossibly catchy, lo-fi garage pop. The incredibly blown-out, distorted production barely obscures his razor-sharp power-pop sensibilities and frantic punk energy.

Genres

Descriptors: Lo Fi, lo-fi, noisy, melodic, repetitive
