Flashlights - Shadows and Lights - New LP

black vinyl

Who cares happy and jolly as a child, just a tinge of awareness of the scary sides of growing up, sung in Japanese (other than “1-2-3”) but everyone will get the vibe they’re putting down, somewhere between Ramones and The Partridge Family, a bit like those lesser known bands that rose in the wake of Blondie, playful power pop with harmonies and dinky bridges of electric guitar, backbeat you can’t lose it...



....mastered by Jeff Burke (Marked Men/Potential Johns/Radioactivity/etc), the Bubble Yum snapping in your face, like when your squeeze wakes you just to tell you that you don’t gotta get up, it’s spring break and jr high is closed all week, she rolls open your window to let the spring breeze ripple your posters of the Go Gos, Nikki Corvette and Debbie Harry on the wall, singing some pop song from 1966 and twirling around your room in her PF Flyers and oversized striped shirt, you can’t help but chuck the covers and join her. -- winch
