Mixed Reality

Gin Blossoms

Shimmering jangle-pop recorded through vintage gear. A warm, weathered collection of mid-tempo rock that feels like a long-lost sequel to the 90s.

It’s like the 90s never ended, but everyone got a little wiser and the guitars got even better.

A warm, nostalgic embrace that balances the energy of power-pop with the wisdom of middle age.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The explosion of multi-tracked vocal harmonies during the chorus of 'Angels Fly' that feels like a classic 90s radio hook.
The sudden, jarring transition into the thirty-second experimental interlude 'The JFK Shit Show' before the final tracks.
The way the guitars interlock with a clean, bell-like clarity on 'Break', echoing the band's early 1992 peak.
