Sometimes Always - ePop008 (2011)



/Indie pop, Alternative rock, Cover, Noise pop, Shoegaze, Fuzz pop, Electro rock, Jangle pop/


Comment: Sometimes Always (may it be named by the Hope Sandoval-featured JAMC`s hit?) is a sequent example of the blossoming Indonesian indie scene nowadays. More detailly, Tyo from Jakarta seems to be one of those old school guys who used to mix up the mid-period (Isn`t Anything) MBV-echoed densely stomping drum patterns with dynamic, hiss-filled jangle pop/C86/blonde hair guitar strums, however, which will be interrupted sometime to segue into shoegaze-inflected electro rock (a cover of The Sharesprings` Ivory Tower). Grossly, it is a recommended release for all of those bewailing crews having assumed the advantage of the past experience vis à vis with the nowadays musical situation.
