Have you ever imagined MGMT mixed with some Beach boys, then meeting Weezer to beef things up a little?
Well here you have it and it is frickin awesome. I am always looking for new bands and this ticks all the boxes.
The whole Spacesuit EP is upbeat with a happy, almost dreamy summer feel with great tunes. Indie rock perhaps would be a suitable genre if you need a pigeonhole.
The song Spacesuit is my favourite track on this short 4 track EP, however Rhetorical Baby is a close second.
Throwing another band reference at you is The Pixies who could easily have written and performed track 3 You Took My Mind. It’s a little more spacey though rather than the dirty raw sound of the Pixies.
Funky bass lines and rums throughout are a key feature as are the jangly guitars with an overtone of 80’s synth thrown in for good measure. The floaty vocals fit beautifully. Nice work guys.
