If you want to feel like a Gregg Araki character, throw on “Willow,” the new single from Minneapolis dream rockers she’s green. They wash pop music out until it’s something entirely different. The band’s dense arrangements are like taking a warm bath, or sunbathing in a creek, or being half awake. Watercolor guitars support a story of evolving love, and the drums hint at the ‘gaze group’s unpredictable range. Following the time-honored tradition of songs in this style, there’s a less-is-more lyrical approach, pumped with air and stretched out lengthwise. It takes around six seconds to grandiosely amble through the word "metamorphosis." With so many references to Mother Nature, it feels both weeping and grounded.
