Dandelion Wine

Moving away from the heavier Spacemen 3-tinged vibe that dominated their earlier records, Dandelion Wine is The Volta Sound's most melodic and accessible release to date. The mostly acoustic driven songs flow like a perfect marriage of Loaded era Velvet Underground and late '60s California sunshine pop. The Cleveland Scene calls Dandelion Wine "the band's loosest and liveliest record yet, full of four-part harmonies, handclaps, Wurlitzer, and wonder," further stating that "they've never penned a better tune than the group hug "I Love You," except maybe for "Girls and Tambourines," where a "la-la-la-la" chorus gives way to punchy horns. Dandelion Wine is as intoxicating as its muse."
