Highly recommended.

A listener might hear echoes of the Velvet Underground, Stereolab, Stone Roses, Yo La Tengo, but there is more going on than just a studied homage to indie rock's progenitors.

The themes of doubt and bewilderment found on previous albums are still present, but they are thrown into a kaleidoscope with beams of positivity, hope, and optimism.

Golden Apples have been on a nice little run of genre-defying indie-rock releases, where you can't quite put your finger on their overarching sound but they still feel like their own contained thing. Very cool band that shouldn't fly under people's radar!
