“Dreamy bedroom summer pop from Oklahoma city”
Plug in and drift: No Museums delivers fuzz that whirrs and grinds against the most jangly of melodic underlays in this sprawling fourth double album from Edmonton's prolific Michael Betmanis. Lunar Isles floats in with dreamy bedroom shoegaze pop from a Scottish guy living in South Korea, while som som contemplates loss, moss, and acceptance across lo-fi but lush songs about reclaiming your voice. Auditory Cortex paints a mural of grief and impending doom, and Glass Dolls rounds things out with Montreal bedroom pop and post-punk meditations on love and loss.
