![]() Pretty songs that run the gamut from lush basement indie rock toįolky lo-fi singer songwriter stuff. Keller has been recording under the name Snow Caps for more than aĭozen years at this point, putting out record after record of awfully I’m not Catholic but I’m going to assume those are the patron saints of post-punk and synthpop, cause that’s exactly what’s going on with Quality Control and it’s awesome. I think I know who’s involved but I don’t want to blow anyone’s cover so let’s just use the names on the Bandcamp: Saint Christopher and Saint Matthew. Dark mark vs skeleton joe bandcamp full#I seriously can’t wait for the full album. There’s some psych vibes, minimal pop, a bit of Portishead, and an almost evil-sounding Krautrock-y drumbeat reverberating behind the whole thing. But also they recorded this song and it’s a real doozy. Leslie was in Louie Louie, Sims was in Dark Web, and together they’re … well, together they’re married and have a totally cute kid.

I don’t need it emblazoned on a shirt – unless it was one of those airbrushed ones, then I might be persuaded – but who am I to not enjoy such a resoundingly obnoxious review?
