Mood Rings - Sweater Weather Forever (2011)

Bandcamp

9.2

/Indie pop, Alternative pop, Shoegaze, Dream pop/

Comment: a handful of solid indie songs by Allen Taylor, a Atlanta, Georgia-based native. The chiming touches of delay-filled pop progressions are spiced up by some more penetrating shoegaze-esque guitar riffs now and then. In fact, the last track Washer abandons all the dreams to come over for fording in the swamp of more straightforward indie rock/shoegaze-ish tunes. Ultimately, you can draw the parallels upon the visions and intention of those combos ever issued on Slumberland Records and Holiday Records. Of course, the reverberations by Deerhunter, and Atlas Sound are also represented on it. However, this release was the first one issued in 2011. Taylor has been truly prolific since this moment (7 publications upon it at Bandcamp).
