Setting Suns are Semi-Circles

by Whimsical

supported by

Midnight Vega The drums on this track are astoundingly precise, and their technical nature is a driving force. Favorite track: Utopia.

Agent K Saint Marie Records excavated this release from the dreampop crypts and gave us a gift from a forgotten gem of a band.
They are going to remind you of a lot of dream/gaze faves and you'll end up wondering like me....
How did everyone miss them the first time around?
Lovingly resurrected for your aural listening pleasure.
Thanks Wyatt Favorite track: Head Above Water.

Jabod I only just discovered these Indiana shoegazers, because they are about to bring out a new album. The classic "ethereal" sound is perhaps not surprising as this album dates from 2000. I can't wait for the new one!
