Review :: Huckleberry Friends – 2010 10″

Huckleberry Friends
2010 10″
(Nimbostratus)
Toronto, ON
::web/sounds::


From the hidden burials of Aaron Levin:
Huckleberry Friends continue wayfaring through the mystic burial grounds of druidic psych. Drones of timbre, pulsing æther, and ceremonial groove permeate their latest 10″, pushing the coven of femme-pop conjuring into heights of lysergic divinity. The EP is delicately packaged in a textured black triple gatefold complete with ephemera, clear bronze vinyl, and a download. Listen at full stone.

Review :: Silly Kissers – Precious Necklace

Silly Kissers
Precious Necklace
(Arbutus Records)
Montreal, QC
::web/sounds::


From the perilous necklace of Aaron Levin:
I want to live Precious Necklace. I want tight sweaters. VIP access to the clurb. Double martinis. False love. Teen soundtracks blasting. I want the whole world in a song and I want to dance; pulsing drum machines, echoey vocals and exaggerated pop-harmonies. Let the music take you back in time. Nintendo, cocaine, plastic people, and radio hits. Sex in bathrooms and parental neglect. Stereotypes. We’ve lost our youth. We can take it back. The Silly Kissers, in a futuristic act of heroism, are our only hope. Their fourth and most realized effort to-date showcases their perfected 80s-pop ventriloquism. Precious Necklace is a re-imagining that only nostalgia can deliver; glossing over the weaknesses of an era we will never truly understand and manipulating the pearls of its bounty to deliver every genre’s saving grace: synthetic pop perfection. Precious Necklace, released as a limited-edition 10″ on Montreal’s Arbutus Records, is a 10/10 major-scale heart-melt. The world has never needed so much. They will deliver. GRIP. IT. NOW.
