Sometimes They Drop By

The Raveonettes

Four tracks of noir-drenched noise pop. Shimmering tremolo guitars and ghostly male-female harmonies create a cinematic, late-night urban haze.

It's like a 60s girl group record played through a broken amp in a rainy alleyway.

A cinematic blend of late-night urban loneliness and shimmering, distorted beauty.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the guitar tremolo on Way Out There feels like it is vibrating through a thick layer of water.
The sudden swell of feedback that dissolves into the sweet, breathy vocal hook of the title track.
The hypnotic, repetitive drum beat on Vintage Future that anchors the swirling layers of noise.
