Hard for us to not be charmed by this one, it has a giddy fuzz, it's the kind of alt-rock that smashes that nostalgic itch, it's power pop, shoegaze and pure golden era MTV 120 minutes.
For those who dig: Hotline TNT, MBV, Sonic Youth, Bully, Momma, The Belair Lip Bombs, Wishy...
R is for Rocket, the quartet's remarkable debut album, is a joyride through
sonic terrain that is gloriously loud, anthemic, bombastic and beautiful, with
instantly captivating songs that achieve the rare feat of evoking nostalgia
while sounding completely new
The band's jagged, fuzzed-out sound has antecedents in '90s guitar bands like Sonic
Youth and My Bloody Valentine, but Rocket are doing something uniquely their own
with those touchstones. It's no wonder they are widely considered one of the most
promising guitar-forward bands of their generation.
