Album Review
Originally released as a CD-R, this acid-fried eight-track recording by this odd newcomer to Animal Collective's Paw Tracks label is one of the most wonderfully skewed takes on classic pop you're likely to hear. Tape warp and vintage hiss and hum are the outerwear, but some serious '70s radio songcraft dwells underneath. This is the stuff Bowie heard in his dreams when not being terrorized by Satan living in his swimming pool. So dang it if we don't have a lo-fi revival on our hands. But this new batch seems bound and determined to drag listeners back with writing so catchy and sounds so warm that it's impossible to resist. Just pretend you're Steve Buscemi's character in Ghost World, and Maxell cassettes are the new 78-rpm records.
Customer Reviews
Let's Build a Campfire There
Wow! great songs. Buy this album! Way better then anything you will hear on the radio today. Ah!
I Was Told To Listen To This
Listening to this stuff makes me feel cool...:)
Lo-fi pop that kinda wrote the book on today's lo-fi pop.
The blogs are considering this guy, the "grandfather of Chillwave"
I just think it's really good song writing, that has its own character, especially in the time this came out when labels like Chillwave didn't rear their ugly heads. The album "Doldrums" is pretty as it is ugly, which is intriguing enough for us to want to listen. I like it!
