This was a treat. An intimate and intricate sounding collection that has this modern folk vibe. Kind of a soft whisper with some groovy bits. It's got more of a poetic feel. Makes me think of someone like Harold Budd. Not so much in how they sound, but more about a marriage of poetry and minimalist sounding music. I also get a little Daniel Johnston. But I'm no expert.

Anyway, my favorite tracks were the instrumental "Rogue Flowers Among Fields of Wheat" and "Between ... read more

What a fun, catchy, hook filled thing this record is. The music is so brisk and alive that it allows the darker lyrical subjects of these songs to almost feel satirical. Loneliness, paranoia, getting burnt out, violence, and the disappointment of realizing you actually do care about other people. It's fun, witty, subversive, clever. Just a good time listen about people going through a bad time.

Musically it reminds me of Johnny Marr, The Beautiful South, and even They Might Be Giants.

A kind of noisy psychedelic album with interesting production that makes this sound vintage and contemporary. If I were going to try and explain what it sounds like, I'd say it's kind of like a grandchild of George Harrison with a Wes Anderson aesthetic and bits of noise with some electronic dreamy pop.

Sometimes it can get lost in these trippy loops of sound. But in a good way. It pulls so much ... read more

This is definitely not in my wheelhouse, but I liked some of the dreamy, ambient stuff here. The album has interesting overlapping sounds and beats. The vocal track seems almost disassociated as the bass vibrates.

"Better" sounds great, "Mantra" is clever, "Skeleton" has this crazy distortion that makes it stand out. The entire album blends together nicely. I probably miss some of the subtleties but ovwrall these tracks feel personal and introspective.

I enjoyed this little EP of 4 tracks introducing me to Shea. Highlights were "Pangea" and my favorite track "City North" which is a keeper as far as I am concerned. I love how it sounds like haunted harmonies buried under fuzzy guitars. They blend indie pop/dream pop with shoegaze and noise in a way that I like.

Upon first listen these songs seems to reflect on relationships gone wrong that are still unresolved and self-discovery. It's reflective and seems haunted by ... read more
