“can be construed as the most natural addition for those who already consider Elliott Smith, I Was A King and the recent sounds of Subjangle labelmates The Boltons and Shopfires”
Strings jangled, hearts mangled: Owen Marchildon stuns with Big Star-influenced power-pop and dark Echo and the Bunnymen cinematic depth on his debut under his own name, while PoPo delivers Sweden's Lars Harefjord serving retro lo-fi jangle with deliciously alt and obtuse detours into dreamy melancholy. Nutrias blend Flying Nun-inspired fey guitar-pop with jangly Spanish indie muscularity, and I Wanna Be A Truck Driver evokes Glasgow's finest C86 and BMX Bandits traditions with every glorious riff. Couchboy rounds things out with Lemonheads-flavoured 90s jangle-pop muscle that proves the era remains gloriously underrated.

“Trouble in the Milk Aisle EP ticks just about every box for those that like their jangly indie-pop placed firmly within defiantly obtuse realms.”
“Jangly college rock from the heart of the 80s”
“jangle riffs that coerse through the most vibrant of psyche-pop and rock inflections.”
