Pete Christianson
Guitars jangle with a dusty snap and the drums stay punchy.
Guitars glow with a clean jangle and the drums keep a dry.
Fresh, bright, and slightly reckless, it feels like the kind of single.
Guitars sparkle instead of roar and the drums keep a clipped.
Guitars arrive bright and clean and the drums keep a brisk road-beat.
The vocal sits up front, wrapped in glossy synths and a hook.
Guitars flash in and out like streetlights and giving the song a glossy.
Guitars chime up front and the drums keep a steady lane.
My favorite Indie Rock songs from the past year.
Mumford & Sons sound fully locked in on Where Are You Now.
Of Monsters and Men turn “Sloom” into the kind of song.
During a late bus ride, a walk home, or the first warm night.
Fiddles, handclaps, and a rough-edged stomp drive the mix.
Guitars flicker with a glassy edge and drums keep a steady pulse.
The chorus feels tailor-made for repeat plays.
