The Parties, Cryin’ Shame EP

2009 | Label: Rainbow Quartz / Redeye

Jangly psych rock bands seem to be all the retro-chic rage these days. San Francisco group The Parties contribute worthily to the trend, putting out shoegazey pop hooks that evoke both 1960s beach/folk nostalgia and 1990s reverb-y edge. Try title track "Cryin Shame" if you're looking for an unpretentious mood elevator.
