Hooks At the Front, Fuzz Around the Edges



Jangle, post-punk, power pop, noise-pop, shoegaze, garage, psych, and synths. Hooks at the front, fuzz around the edges, and enough left turns to keep the whole thing from settling into a genre.

New songs, strange covers, big guitars, small machines, and records that seem to have wandered in from entirely different shows but somehow make themselves at home.

No nostalgia trip. No genre purity test. Just adventurous indie rock with a pulse, a sense of humor, and [checks watch] somewhere to go next.
