Dreamy post/indie pop and electronics. The Australian group is an offshoot of instrumental rockers, Apricot Rail. Glimmery, warm, bubbly, “neo-shoegaze” specializing in nostalgia with lots of prominent drum machines. For fans of Sigur Ros, Deerhunter, Efterklang. 2.5 Meows plus half of a “C.” No FCCs noted.
1. Melodic reverser effects, joyous keys, uplifting instrumental. (3:14)
2. Grizzly Bear and Deerhunter having a baby. (3:44)
3. Churning rhythm, trippy pleasant bliss. (4:25)
*4. Cutesy electronics, twisty loops, supplemented by a complex beat; child-like. (4:20)
*5. Chill, Kate Bush meets Sigur Ros, lots of interweaving riffs. (4:35)
6. Bubbly, swirly, slamming beat. (3:34)
7. Another warped, nostalgic childhood carousel ride, rich backing vocals. (2:41)
8. Silly 60s throwback anthem about being jilted by a lesbian. (5:54)
9. Cheesy synth pads and 80s feel leads a dancefloor-ready groove. (3:52)
*10. Diet shoegaze meets aching electronics and sweet vocals. (4:17)
*11. Hi-fi mix of acoustic guitars, electronics, keys, synths; wistful instrumental. (3:49)
12. Rhythmic reversed effects, glitchy, pretty, dreamy swirl. (3:33)
