Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Welsh trio's debut mini-album is a towering wall of stadium-sized indie rock and dream-pop aesthetics. 'A Balloon Called Moaning' contrasts Ritzy Bryan's sweet, breathy vocal melodies with aggressively loud, fuzz-drenched guitar dynamics, rapidly earning them widespread critical acclaim in the UK.
