Tape-saturated bedroom folk that feels like a box of old Polaroids. Warped vocals and muffled guitars create a haunting world of suburban mystery.
September 9, 2014 · Alex G Music
Listening to this album is like stumbling upon a cassette tape in a shoebox that was never meant for your ears. It is deeply intimate, characterized by a thick layer of tape hiss and the kind of acoustic guitar warmth that only comes from bedroom recordings. The songs are short, often ending just as you begin to settle into their groove, which gives the entire experience a fragmented, dream-like quality. It feels less like a polished product and more like a series of private transmissions from a basement in suburban Pennsylvania.
