Hooks, haze, and heartache abound in jangle pop's finest corners: Shapes Like People push the boundaries of traditional jangle pop by mixing dreampop and shoegaze across a flawless, cohesive twelve-track album, while The Kind Hills craft 'odes to simplicity' that convey the dull ache of lost love through unhurried, unfettered jangly indie-pop that never strays into the fluffier realms of contrition. Few Border blends subtle gaze inflections with beautifully lucid jangled riffs found with consummate ease, and Liberty Belle delivers the most beautifully fragile indie-pop imaginable, firmly at the McLennan end of The Go-Betweens repertoire. Parker Posies bring Gen Z girls with Gen X attitudes via surfy riffs and bittersweet female vocals layered over high school heartache.
