Staggering

Bin It

If Ralph Waldo Emerson was correct in observing that “genius realizes and adds,” then boy genius do not deserve their moniker, even in an ironic lowercase. The reed-thin vocals and jangly guitars frolic irrepressibly in another era (think Reality Bites rather than Singles) without contributing anything new to today’s canon.

Reminds us of furry, happy monsters laughing | one of those bands that Tanya Donnelly was in | late night infomercials
