Lovingly crafted and eclectic - some lo-fi, some acoustic, and some that rock harder than an ill tempered troglodyte - this collection of singles was recorded and released one by one over a six month period.

What a freakin' breath of fresh air. I've started to veer into jazz because I have such a hard time finding palatable material in rock/pop. I love that the chord structure and melodies are always completely unpredictable. Very, very nice, and I'm glad I stumbled across this record. I found more on iTunes, too.

In this 6-song release, clear production and enviable guitar tone roll themselves out over pointed songwriting, where all elements land in a downy bed of nostalgia chords and swooning, love-tainted lyrics. This act has an irresistible sincerity that leaks out through Castillo's genuinely charming vocals and the band's laid-back-but-rollicking guitar pop. As exuberant and unassuming as the songs can seem, their steady grip pulls ribbons of melody tight around a listener's ticker, fashioning a flurry of paths for the kind of sentiment the record possesses; it can't be called plaintive, but it certainly lends itself to the softheartedness many of us crave in new songs. It's not so much a collection of sad bastard songs as it is one that's enlisted a clever sleight of hand when matching the clear-coated instrumentation and congenial songs with witty jabs at lost emotion. This release is available for download only, and if this reviewer's experience is any indication, there is no possible way to remove these songs from your head once you've heard them.
