It's New Zealand week again! Get ready to hear the word "jangly" a lot.
Bouncing, jangly guitar rock that would sound 90's-sitcom-theme-song-ready, if not for those baroque edges, those simmering patient stretches, that strained accent, that prescient light dissonance. The there's flecks of American indie/underground/alternative in every chord, crystallized into weird shapes, a catchy, offkilter romp through the present and future of a half dozen bands.
Specifically: Unicorns fans, did you hear that I Was Born a Unicorn-into-Jellybones guitar part at 2:25 of New Kind of Hero? Neat.
4/5
