Soviet League / Row

I feel like a certain kind of indie pop has dominated the past decade or so, making a bit difficult for anything feeding off those vibes to feel original. The Soviet Union somehow blew my mind with their sweet poppy brilliance when I went to review their record. Row is the first track on their debut self-titled LP on Angel Oven Records. The bouncy bass line combined with their sweet choral harmonies that almost remind of the Beach Boys at times make me want to dance in a field of flowers and butterflies and rainbows. But then it gets even better towards the end when they switch it up to whistling and the sugary redundant instrumental melodies feel soooo good and fresh. You should definitely give this one a listen. It rules sooo much. And oh man that bass line.
