“...another superb noise-pop act from a South East Asia area that is rapidly cornering the market in fey fuzz-pop.”
From the dream-pop depths of Leicester: Shopfires' Surplus EP unearths the tracks Neil Hill nearly left sleeping on his hard drive forever, delivering yet more of his signature melancholy, dreamy, jangly indie-pop brilliance. Coaxed out by persistent "musical naggings," these surplus gems prove that even Hill's off-cuts are anything but ordinary — sitting comfortably alongside his acclaimed 2024 albums.
Nothing on this shelf right now. Here are releases from related sounds.
“...another superb noise-pop act from a South East Asia area that is rapidly cornering the market in fey fuzz-pop.”
“Quirky, jangle that claims the musical hinterland between the 1990s indie-pop and todays bedroom-pop modernity”
“The perfect juxtaposition of dry slacker pop, incidental jangled riffs and fuzz-laden aural textures.”
“To finish as a 'sequel' to the previous album, 'Dreams of an Imaginary Place' is an experimental album of psychedelic pop and a bit of folk as well, a kind of mix of different styles for each song.”
“Burnished, lo-fi jangle-rock has never felt quite so naturally vital as it does in the hands of AM Shanley.”
“'Open Highway', serves as a perfect illustration of the recent journey jangle-pop has taken along the lo-fi road increasingly travelled”
