Nouns

The Sub Pop debut by this LA duo is succinctly all encompassing, from the faux simplicity of the title to the beautiful distortion of its sound, to the packaging that includes a 68-page full-color book packed with photos and art pieces. The record opens with a symphony of noise and sometimes creeps, sometimes smashes through a sonic headlock befitting 'Daydream Nation'-era Sonic Youth, Kiwi pop, My Bloody Valentine, and experimental noise.
