La Sera's debut is reminiscent of soft focus cinematography; details blur together to create a vague whole. With edited recording, flaws disappear, but it also can make tracks boring. With no distinct start or finish to each song, sounds blend into a surf-pop, saccharine serenade lacking in emotive catharsis.
Remind us of: Vivian Girls | Best Coast | The Raveonettes without the dissonance
